To The Moon

On the week of April 7, the latest Commitment of Traders (CFTC) data release from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission immediately ignited market discussions: stock index futures saw intensified multi-force tug-of-war, crude oil longs staged a strong comeback, while precious metals like gold saw funds quietly exiting. This isn't random volatility—it's a clear signal of big money "rotating tracks"!

Since April 9, developments between the United States and Iran have broadly followed a pattern of “ceasefire implementation and advancing negotiations, but fragile execution and unresolved disagreements.” After the two-week temporary ceasefire entered the implementation stage, the Strait of Hormuz nominally resumed limited shipping, yet the actual volume of vessel traffic remained extremely low, suggesting that maritime tensions had not genuinely eased. Then, on April 10 and 11, the United States and Iran held high-level talks in Islamabad, discussing sanctions arrangements, ceasefire boundaries, and navigation through the strait. Despite the lengthy discussions, however, no substantive breakthrough was achieved. From April 13 to 15, there were brief expectations that the ceasefire might b

The most closely watched development in the market over the weekend was undoubtedly the progress of negotiations between the United States and Iran. Based on comprehensive reports, while there has been some engagement, the core issues remain fundamentally unresolved. It has now been a full month since the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz began, and crude oil inventories in Gulf nations are perilously close to reaching maximum capacity. If the U.S. and Iran fail to reach a viable agreement to guarantee safe passage through the strait within this two-week ceasefire window, the market is likely to further fuel long-term inflation fears. However, this turbulent environment is exactly what creates exceptional trading opportunities in the forward contracts of various commodities.

Recently, the core variable in crude oil trading has still been the evolving situation in the Strait of Hormuz. Based on the information currently available, a second round of negotiations between the United States and Iran has already been put on the agenda. That, in itself, is a very important development. It suggests that the Strait of Hormuz crisis is moving away from a war-based resolution path and gradually shifting toward a negotiation-based one. In other words, the situation is easing rather than escalating. This shift matters because it directly changes the pricing logic of crude oil. If the market was previously trading on the assumption of escalating conflict, supply disruption, and uncontrolled risk, it is now beginning to price in easing tensions, advancing dialogue, and a dec

The most closely watched development over the weekend was the progress in talks between the United States and Iran. Based on the weekend news flow, there has been some progress, but the core issues remain unresolved. Since the Strait of Hormuz was blocked a month ago, Gulf countries’ crude inventories are also nearing full capacity. If, during this two-week ceasefire window, the United States and Iran still fail to reach a better agreement that ensures safe passage through the strait, the market is likely to further lift long-term inflation sentiment, creating trading opportunities in the forward contracts of many commodities.I.

Hi the latest news The day after talks collapsed, Trump escalated hard. US Central Command announced a blockade of all maritime traffic to and from Iranian ports, and Trump threatened to prevent ships from passing through the Strait of Hormuz entirely. NBC News He also said the US military is looking at resuming limited strikes inside Iran. The Strait carries roughly 20% of the world's oil supply. Any serious disruption there hits energy prices, shipping costs, and global risk appetite all at once. We are not in full escalation yet — but the direction of travel is not comforting, and investors who are not paying attention are going to get caught off guard. Even as the situation escalated, stocks wavered and oil held relatively steady — which tells you something important. The market is alr

Chinese Automobile stocks rose in early trading on Monday (13 April), bucking the wider market trend after data released by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) showed that automobile exports surged 56.7% YoY in Q1. $NIO-SW(09866)$ led gains in the sector, rising 6.6% in morning trade on strong ES9 pre-orders. Amplifying the return, the NIO 5x Long DLC surged 33%. There is currently no Short DLC on NIO listed for trading.

Firstly The price action was already showing resiliency last Thursday before the Good Friday holiday. The market went down initially following Trump’s national address over the Iran war update, as investors were anticipating an end to the war—but Trump said to continue instead. Yet the market recovered almost all its losses by end of day, showing strength. Some investors may still think that the worst isn’t over because the ceasefire looks fragile—Israel is bombarding Lebanon and Iran said the ceasefire includes non-bombing of Lebanon. Iran has continued to restrict ship passage through the Strait of Hormuz to about a dozen a day and is imposing tolls. The US isn’t happy about the tolls as the ceasefire was contingent on an open Hormuz. The following Tuesday was the deadline for Iran to op

USO BOUNCES TO $126 AFTER A 10% PLUNGE: IS THIS A TRAP OR A GENUINE BOTTOM? USO edged up almost 2% today to $126.96, staging a desperate technical recovery after yesterday's violent, near-10% wipeout. The catalyst for the plunge? The geopolitical risk premium tied to the U.S.-Iran ceasefire window is rapidly nearing exhaustion. For weeks, the market priced in the worst-case supply disruption scenario. Now that diplomatic channels are showing signs of life, that fear premium is evaporating. But with massive macro headwinds looming and a heavy technical ceiling right above at $130, traders need to ask themselves a hard question: is this a stabilization point to buy, or just a dead cat bounce offering a better short entry? 1.

I think the ceasefire will hold as both sides need a breather, so oil futures will be bearish for awhile.  @amxt88  @Noobilicious  @DaRunner  @Gavin1049  @elmo300  @TigerPM  @Tiger Trade Feed  @pretiming  @Spiders  

Oil’s rebound matters more than the headline drop. Yes, crude crashed after the ceasefire, but the market is already showing that the energy risk premium did not disappear overnight. Brent fell sharply on the initial truce news, yet supply concerns around Hormuz, tanker movement, and infrastructure damage are still keeping the floor under oil much higher than pre-crisis levels. That is why I think this bounce in oil is worth respecting. A near-10% plunge can unwind panic fast, but when prices stabilize quickly after that, it tells me the market still believes the Middle East supply story is not fully resolved. Even after the ceasefire announcement, major outlets noted the truce was fragile and shipping through the Strait remained uncertain. My take: this looks less like “risk premium is go

USO just clawed back 1.91% to $126.96, staging a technical recovery after yesterday's near-10% plunge as the geopolitical risk premium tied to the U.S.-Iran ceasefire window nears exhaustion. 😤 This snapback highlights oil's sensitivity to any sign of de-escalation, but the broader picture remains murky with OPEC+ production increase expectations looming and slowing global demand growth capping medium-term upside. $130 stands as the immediate resistance level that bulls must conquer to confirm sustained momentum. With the ceasefire providing temporary breathing room, the big question is whether this rebound stabilizes within the window or sets up another breakdown-driven move if talks falter. Emerging markets are watching closely, with Latin America's commodity flows pulling inflows 8% as
