Crude - please avoid the itch to trade it positionally for now. I understand the premiums are healthy for crude - 650+ straddle is about 12% of the underlying but that's there for a reason. This may turn ugly because of geo political tension. It's ok to lose out on some "potential opportunity" for mental peace.


If you have existing position, manage them well. If not, avoid for now.
