They're stopping the wells?

 
Oil has collapsed because wells are NOT being stopped - we need to make room in the overflowing storage tanks

It is not certain that the space required will be available by then

 
someone made a lot of money - the contract for May is -16, no - at the peak it was minus $40 - someone promised oil at $40 a barrel, but did not specify what was minus, like buy oil from us, we will pay you $40 to buy it

In fact, in the May contract, they gave away the oil for free, and also gave you money on top, just take it away ))

Metatrader, on the other hand, died at zero price.
And it does not display negative prices.
Probably because of the setting to display or not to display negative prices, as in custom symbols.
This is again another error in the terminal.


 
prostotrader:

Trading suspended on 3 cents

Trading was not halted, as confirmed by the exchange price.
This revealed a bug in the applications, which do not display negative prices.

Here they are, the true victims of the coronovirus... Not the ones lying in hospitals coughing)))

It's a good lesson for everyone in understanding that they(the manufacturers) are nothing, without sales.
To bankrupt them, all you have to do is refuse to buy)).
In principle, this theory applies to any commodity.

And it's a good lesson in understanding supply and demand.
