🇮🇷 The IRGC issues a warning to vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz via undesignated routes and without permission
"Vessels transiting outside of the designated routes are responsible for any consequences"
h/t @_MartinKelly_#oott
So what does a trader do here?
Given the recent Russian headline (and not to mention anything of the situation in the Strait of Hormuz) if you have a short bias you express it in #crude futures, whereas if you have a long bias you express it in a #distillate.
Both directions, both in the energy complex, both quality trades.
This is Aralyx.
🛢️ Many traders will naturally look at crude oil #futures first when Russian oil headlines hit.
That is the right place to start, but it is only part of the picture, the bigger opportunity can often be found elsewhere in the energy complex.
Today's headline is a good example 🧵
#OOTT #FuturesTrading #propfirm
🇺🇸 Heating Oil (CME)
This is the futures contract used as the benchmark for US diesel.
Depending on how tight refineries are on either side of the Atlantic, traders may see a bigger reaction in US diesel and so need to also be aware of this market for opportunities.
Similar to Gasoil it has not been able to get thru last weeks low.
🛢️ Despite countries in the region openly discussing the idea of some form of fee for transit through the Strait, #CL futures continue to believe US President Trump's view on the situation.
#OOTT
🇺🇸 🇮🇷 Trump on Iran and the Strait of Hormuz:
• Says Iran has confirmed there are no tolls, no insurance costs, and no other charges of any kind on ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz
• Warns that if this is false, negotiations would end immediately
• States no money has been given to Iran or released by the US
• Says the US will release some frozen Iranian funds, controlled by the US, to be used exclusively to purchase US agricultural goods including corn, wheat, and soybeans for Iran's food needs
Small blip in CME #yen futures (6J) on Ueda comments. Price has now retraced and continuing trend lower.
Yen is a market to watch given the likelihood of intervention. Price of the futures will rally sharply when the Japanese Ministry of Finance of Finance deems yens weakness to be "excessive".
🇯🇵 BOJ's Ueda reaffirms rate hike path:
• Japan's economy recovering moderately, though some weaknesses remain; growth likely to slow but continue
• Financial conditions remain accommodative after recent hike, continuing to support economic activity
• Expects to continue raising rates as underlying inflation approaches 2%; risk it may overshoot
• Timing and pace of future hikes will depend on likelihood of baseline forecasts materialising and associated risks
• Watching Middle East developments, AI related investment profitability, and overseas nonbank activity and their impact on the financial system
• Japan's financial system remains stable as a whole
🛢️ #Russia threatens to ban diesel exports causing a small rally in #crude futures.
However the real move is in #gasoil futures as they are the most closely affected by this threatened move.
#OOTT
🇷🇺 Comments from Russia's Novak:
• Oil companies have increased fuel production to maximum levels
• Refinery maintenance has been delayed
• Russia is considering a diesel export ban
• Fuel reserves are being used to stabilise the market
• Tax proposals have been submitted
• The fuel market remains under pressure, but is under control
🛢️ Talks later today between the United States and Iran continue to hinge on the situation in Lebanon.
#CL futures recently rejected the low from last week.
#OOTT
🇱🇧 🇮🇱 🇮🇷 🇺🇸 Iranian envoy after the fatality in southern Lebanon earlier today:
• Any violation of the memorandum of understanding in Lebanon will create challenges for the peace process
🇩🇪 🇪🇺 Germany's June PMI data comes in below expectations, with weakness driven by the services sector.
• Manufacturing PMI rises to 50.0 vs. 50.2 expected
• Services PMI falls to 46.8 vs. 49.0 expected
• Composite PMI falls to 48.0
We tried backing traders with real capital at @FXStreetNews back in 2010. Gave $10k each to three of them.
Spoiler: it didn't go well.
Then I met @aralyx, doing the same thing today. Made me rethink whether the model was ever the problem 👇

UK CPI comes in below expectations, leading to a small rally in #Bund futures.
That move is a signal to watch #ShortSterling and #Gilt futures opens at 07:30 and 08:00 GMT+1
🇬🇧 UK inflation comes in below expectations, with both headline and core CPI undershooting forecasts.
• UK May CPI rises 2.8% year on year vs. 3.0% expected
• UK May core CPI rises 2.6% year on year vs. 2.7% expected
15% on its own isn't a guaranteed live seat. Qualifying for a cycle requires a return of 15% or more, drawdown kept within 8% at all times, and at least 35 active trading days. After each cycle, the traders who rank in the top 15 move to a live trading account once they clear KYC and a risk interview. The 15% is the entry bar, and ranking decides the seats.

🇮🇷 🇺🇸 Iran's Mehr:
• The MoU with the US includes a US commitment to lift sanctions, withdraw forces from around Iran, and end the naval blockade
• The MoU also includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz, cancelling oil sanctions, and releasing Iran's frozen funds
• Final negotiations will focus on nuclear and economic issues, excluding discussions on Iran's missile programme
• The draft still requires final approval from the relevant authorities

Hi @timothyryback1 Aralyx is a traditional proprietary trading firm with a physical trading floor and a team trading since 2012. There's a monthly subscription for the Assessment Track (broker connectivity, Newsquawk terminal, access to 7/8-figure traders through trading floor comms, education and proprietary risk management software), but it's credited back on your first profit withdrawal once you go live. The Professional Track (direct entry with a verified track record) has no subscription at all.
After each cycle, the traders who rank in the top 15 move to a live trading account once they clear KYC and a risk interview (confirming you are who you say you are). From there it's an 80/20 split in your favour, withdraw any time you're in profit (usually within 24h), and we cover your live trading costs (desk, data, exchange, clearing, and your platform front-end such as TT Pro or Stellar Trading Systems) for up to 12 months.
We put traders on live firm capital every cycle and scale them aggressively as they show consistency and risk discipline. Our real upside is the 20%, so we only succeed when our traders do.
Socials aren't monitored for support, so for anything detailed email [email protected] or see https://t.co/Yx3g6pGabk
