Originally planned to skip energy exposure after catching that headline spike. But then a major platform quietly introduced XOM and CVX into their volatility trading window mid-week—that changed everything.

Ended up running a small market-neutral pair trade at 12x leverage each side, grabbed the fee reduction and banked double points on the activity. Still had 50x sitting there as an option if conviction shifted. Sometimes these quiet product updates force you to recalculate your entire week's positioning.

CVX-1,1%

The platform secretly added two targets, and I changed my mind. I really didn't see this coming.

The platform's hint this time is quite aggressive, directly changing the entire week's approach.

The platform secretly adding products is really clever. Once updated, it completely ruins the week's plan... Playing 12x with hedging can also save on fees. This move is quite addictive.

The platform secretly added these two oil and gas stocks just to make us follow the trend? I didn't expect 12x to go so smoothly, but I really don't dare to try 50x leverage.

The platform secretly launching products is really clever, directly disrupting my entire week's plan... 12x bilateral neutral hedging, and casually snatching some benefits, now that's called bottom-fishing insight.

Adding a new product secretly on the platform can disrupt the entire week's plan. Can't hold it anymore, haha.
