Good move my friend!! The banking stuff won't have an impact in the short term for oil demand. An overreaction for sure.

Bought a very small position in oils today as I agree the reaction is overdone. ...more

Yep My options trading days are long gone as I have mentioned before. That said, when I saw this post, I cringed for the reasons that you have outlined. Hope it works out for him.
