Yes it would be. Contract size doesn't work for me though. Right or wrong, I use Crude minis to hedge all fuel. (Still to large for a true hedge for me but ....)They are much more liquid than mini HO contracts and have traded reasonably close to HO. Has worked pretty well for me in the past, your mileage may vary.
