IRAN / USA

Saudi Arabia is really playing a devastating role against Iran.  Trump killed Iranian commander to escape from impeachment - what I believe.  But if Iran responds anything, then it will turn to mess in middle east and it will effect on Iranian oil supply.

This Nord Stream 2 dog fight might not be all bad

The effort by the United States to use sanctions to shut down the Nord Stream 2 pipeline between Russia and Germany by imposing sanctions on the entities involved in it is, in my opinion, is beyond outrageous. However, nobody seems to be surprised because it is part of a pattern. This is merely the most recent demonstration of the increasingly egregious violations of the laws, customs, traditions and mores that govern the behavior of civilized nations that we now expect from the United States of

Global and local oil marketing strategies

Market orientation is the greatest challenge confronting oil companies whos want to open new markets and increase . To do this, First companies must determine the relevant markets in which they wish to act, based on analysis of consumer behavior and their own strength . once those markets are identified companies must segment the market , select target market and positioning .  in this sense , an oil differentiation strategy is the mainstay of positioning management in order to create a prod

Does Trading requires volatility ???

There are different kinds of oil price movements. The first case, which today is only of historical interest, arises when oil prices in international trade were administered first by a group of major oil companies and subsequently by OPEC. The oil price behaviour followed then a typical pattern characterised by periods of different lengths during which a reference price (eg Arabian Light 34 API) remained constant in nominal dollars. We had therefore price episodes, and the passage from one episo

Diary of a WTI options market maker

I have been a trader since 1980. I started trading options in late 1983. I lost every penny of a $1.6 million portfolio in the crash of October 1987. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I have a undergraduate degree in Finance. I have a Masters degree in Economics. I have completed about half the requirements of a PhD in Financial Economics. I don't advise pursuing a PhD unless you want to be a teacher. It will not make you a better investor/trader. I developed a trading strategy involving
