"That's the difference between spot markets and futures."
Oh really? Friday close....Spot $3.0243 and Futures $3.0405. Here we have $0.0158 difference...merely less than 2 pennies...oh my must use the spot......one surely should not care which is used.....your argument is insignificant in the bigger trend picture.
The fact is we are above $3 Buckaroos....let's see what next week brings.....after the big boys are through with their money games.
