my crude oil day trading strategy (wti)

Pls what's the margin required for trading oil? Like what's the smallest amount I need to have in my account?

Depends on the broker, some brokers offer micro lots on oil and with such brokers you can use $10 to start and manage a trade

Today I shorted oil during the start of the NY session

WTI BUY TRADE

Trade in progress

BUY 8669

SL 8588

Stopped out of this one

WTI long trade

The strategy here is to box out the early trading period from 1 to 2:30 pm which is like the pre-open then trade when price reacts with the edge of the box or when price exits the box and starts coming back in. I have closed it in profit
