š„Iran is encountering a significant challenge in its oil trade with China.
While over 30 laden tankers have already been sent (and many were already in floating storage), the country does not have enough empty vessels available to maintain continuous shipments.
Everyone calls Dated Brent crude oil the āglobal benchmarkā like itās some North Sea royalty.
Reality check: everyone knows that since 2023 itās set daily in physical markets by a cheaper Permian (WTI) barrel shipped from Texas to Europe? Right?
The global āinternational priceā is Texan shale oil disguised in a posh British suit
American oil muscle, British slick marketing.
"Oil fundamentals are highly contradictory right now: some data shows commercial inventories flat/up, others show big draws + tightness. Geopolitics, China, SPRs ā pick your story. I keep fundamentals at ~2% in the background. 98% charts & price action. Oil is a price-today commodity ā the tape is what counts. Cleaner, simpler, and more reliable in noisy markets. #Oil #EnergyTrading"

Are you ready for a real prop firm, with rules made by traders, not marketers? https://t.co/day3anGh6f When you're ready to step up to a real prop firm, Storm coming, be prepared..
Some critics are pushing back against oil scarcity fears. They argue the data doesnāt support aggressive bullish price predictions as strongly as claimed. Inventories arenāt screaming āplenty of oil everywhere,ā but the market also isnāt in the dire crunch viral charts suggest ā more balanced, with key caveats around geopolitics (Hormuz) and regional factors. This separates policy-driven SPR releases from real commercial tightness. Even so, an amplified war would likely send narrative algos and risk premiums sharply higher.
Vitol Says Europe and US Arenāt Facing Up to Oil Supply Crunch
Vitolās top executive in the Middle East said that many Western governments still arenāt reckoning with the oil supply crunch thatās rippling around the world due to the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
āIn Europe and I think in the US, everyone is kind of asleep at the wheel and just carrying on life as normal,ā Tom Baker, a board member at Vitol, said at S&P Globalās Middle East Petroleum & Gas Conference in London. (Bloomberg)
Refinery run rates are at 95% (literally full capacity) and are skipping maintenance, because there is no dent in demand, summer should be interesting >
US Crude Refiners Are Pushing Run Rates to Maximum Levels
US oil refiners are running their plants harder than usual, with some even putting off maintenance, as strong profits and steady demand for fuels tempt the processors to run plants near maximum capacity.
The industry has had one of its lightest maintenance seasons in years.
US summer driving season is just getting underway and underscores why domestic demand is expected to stay high. Refinery utilization rates are hovering close to 95%, which is considered effectively full operating capacity, and total US gasoline stockpiles are at multi-year seasonal lows, according to Energy Department data.

There is a way for retail traders to trade Oil safely: Intraday only during LondonāNew York overlap + micro contracts + fixed risk. No overnight gaps. But first you must master the Yin & Yang ā futures/options dynamics & real order flow. Most never do⦠so they stay away from CL & WTI. The Deep Oil Framework fixes that.

Trump-Xi Summit in Beijing right now could kill the current oil backwardation.Xi has total control post-purges. If they deliver:
Trade detente + supply chain reset
China helping lock down Iran ceasefire (Hormuz reopens)

The fat $3.50ā$4+ June-over-July spread you're harvesting as roll yield on July longs? It evaporates fast and could flip to contango.Bullish for stocks & global growth.
Bearish for near-term crude longs.Summit = potential icing on the cake.If it flops ā backwardation stays juicy.What are you watching? #Oil #WTI #TrumpXi
