Every number on InsideOil tells a story about where crude oil is going. We explain each one — what it is, why it matters, and how professional traders read it. So you don't just see the screen. You understand it.
Every VLCC, Suezmax and Aframax on the planet broadcasts its position via AIS. When tankers slow down, anchor in open sea, or change destination — it reveals supply and demand shifts days before prices react. You'll see this live, updated every 30 seconds.
Is Brent in contango or backwardation? That one question tells you if the market is oversupplied or tight. If storage is profitable. If spot prices are heading up or down. We show the full 12-month curve for Brent, WTI and Dubai, updated every 5 minutes.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration releases its Weekly Petroleum Status Report. Crude stocks, gasoline, distillate, refinery utilization. We show you the 4 numbers to watch, in order, and what each one means for the direction of the trade.
The CFTC publishes how much speculative money is long or short on crude futures. When positioning is extreme, reversals happen. We show you the Managed Money net long for WTI and Brent, updated every Friday, with the thresholds that signal crowding.
Hormuz, Malacca, Suez, Bab-el-Mandeb, Bosphorus, Danish Straits. A sustained drop in tanker transit through any of these usually leads crude prices by 24–72 hours. You'll see live counts, 7-day trends, and anomaly alerts.
The 1–2% rule. The risk calculator. The trade journal. Position sizing is what separates traders who last from those who blow up. We built the tools directly into the platform, and we explain exactly how to use them — before you put any real money at risk.
