Through Thick and Thin

Early the next morning, Lu Chuiqing went to the company as usual, turned on the computer and called up the securities software. Unlike usual, he also opened the international crude oil futures market this time.

Song Wenxin at the next table accidentally saw Lu Chuiqing's computer screen and found that he was paying attention to crude oil futures. He was surprised and said, "Are you looking at futures? The manager arranged for you to investigate?"

Lu Chuiqing: "No, I am watching it myself."

Song Wenxin was even more surprised: "No way? You bought futures?"

"Well... it's actually my boyfriend's account, I'll check it out for him."

Song Wenxin nodded, and said with emotion: "I wouldn't dare touch futures, no matter how much money you give me. How much does your boyfriend plan to invest?"

Lu Chuiqing stared at the ups and downs of the price on the computer, and when she heard Song Wenxin's question, she planned to make the actual amount smaller, and replied hesitantly: "Uh... not much, after all, the risk is high, it's only 10,000+ small... "

"Oh, 10,000+ should be about the same. If you add seven or eight times the leverage, it will be 100 million." Song Wenxin laughed, "Your boyfriend is quite courageous."

Lu Chuiqing smiled shyly, and continued to turn her head to look at the computer intently.

During the lunch break at noon, Lu Chuiqing received a call from Xiao Zhan, who said that he was going on a business trip this week and would not be back until next week.

Xiao Zhan was away this week, although Lu Chuiqing was reluctant, but it would allow him to take advantage of this opportunity to concentrate on operating Xiao Zhan's account.

This Saturday, Lu Chuiqing came home, put down her bag, changed her clothes, and went to the study to sit down in front of the computer.In the past few days, he has spared time every day to simply mark the market, and he will always pay attention to the news of international crude oil. Oil prices are still falling in general, but this also means that the inflection point from the bottom is getting closer and closer.

International crude oil futures traded continuously for 23 hours, Lu Chuiqing decided to open a long position tonight.

Lu Chuiqing kept staring at the market until after ten o'clock in the evening, had a simple supper, and immediately returned to the study.

Now the price of a barrel of Brent crude oil is around 29 US dollars, and the quantity of a lot of crude oil is [-] barrels, and one order is worth [-] US dollars.At present, the margin rate of crude oil futures is [-]%. With [-] times leverage, a one-lot transaction can be completed for less than [-] US dollars.

Seeing that it was almost eleven o'clock, Lu Chuiqing logged into Xiao Zhan's margin account and chose to trade multiple orders.

Now the price of one lot of RMB is a little over 2. Lu Chuiqing thought for a while, and first typed "300" on the number of trading lots, and the account showed that the deposit of more than 600 million was about to be paid in advance.

Lu Chuiqing hesitated for a while, finally gritted her teeth, and tapped another zero.

After the transaction is confirmed, the used margin has reached more than 6000 million, and the current holdings are more than 20.00 lots, with a risk rate of [-]%. There is still a lot of room for the upper limit set by Xiao Zhan.

It cost more than 6000 million at one time, Lu Chuiqing had never imagined such a thing in her life.

After entering the transaction password, Lu Chuiqing's fingers trembled a little.He let out a long breath and leaned back on the chair, took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

Now Lu Chuiqing finally understands why some stock and futures traders burn incense and pray to Buddha after trading—this is killing people!

Lu Chuiqing stared at the K-line on the computer and the margin account that had begun to show floating profit and loss, and couldn't help but began to pray pitifully, go up, go up, his heart really can't bear it.

At this moment, Xiao Zhan, who had just returned to the hotel where he was on a business trip and was still in the elevator, suddenly received a call from Manager Zhao.

"Mr. Xiao, we have monitored that there was an outflow of more than 6000 million funds from your No. [-] margin account at [-]:[-]." Manager Zhao's voice sounded a little anxious, "Did you do it yourself?"

Xiao Zhan paused, the elevator door opened, and he walked into the corridor of the hotel. His expression of surprise and interest was reflected on the decorative mirror wall of the corridor: "More than 6000 million?"

As soon as Manager Zhao heard Xiao Zhan's words, he knew that this was probably not operated by him himself, and he was shocked and frightened immediately: "Mr. Xiao, didn't you operate this?! The transaction uses the transaction key, and your password is Wasn't it leaked?!"

Xiao Zhan replied calmly: "Don't worry, it's my lover, and I gave him the account."

"...Your lover?"

Manager Zhao was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that Mr. Xiao suddenly asked him to liquidate the profitable position not long ago. After a series of events, he figured it out. He was silent for a while. Mr. Xiao was spending a lot of money to please his sweetheart.

Manager Zhao: "Mr. Xiao, does your spouse have experience in futures trading?"

"No." Xiao Zhan replied, "But it doesn't matter."

Manager Zhao has been Mr. Xiao’s financial account manager for several years. This time, Mr. Xiao’s account of more than 2 million is paid as he pleases, and even the transaction password is handed over to the other party. From a professional point of view, he is not It is not in favor of entrusting so much money to an inexperienced layman to operate.

Last year, Lu Chuiqing, who said that a single point would cost millions, was afraid to operate, but this time he spent more than 6000 million in such an abnormal one time. Xiao Zhan was very curious about the reason, and asked, "What kind of warehouse did he build?"

Manager Zhao: "Mr. Xiao, the account bought a long order! Three thousand lots!"

Xiao Zhan raised his eyebrows: "More orders?"

"Yes, it's too risky to place long orders in the current oil price market! Even if you want to buy the bottom, you can't build so many positions at once!" Manager Zhao was both distressed and anxious, and persuaded tactfully, "Mr. Xiao, just a few minutes Your account has a floating loss of more than 50 yuan, you should discuss it with your lover."

Xiao Zhan: "It's okay, let him figure it out, you don't have to worry about it."

Apparently Mr. Xiao is determined to dote on that sacred Omega, and probably use the tens of millions to buy his lover happiness. Manager Zhao knows that there is no room for him to intervene, so he dare not say more.

Manager Zhao here is very anxious, and Lu Chuiqing here is also very nervous.

Although he is relatively sure about the next trend, the problem is that he doesn't know when the inflection point will come. If it comes too late, the price of crude oil will keep falling like this. Under the conditions of the current position, as long as the price of oil If it falls below $21, Xiao Zhan's loss will reach 6000 million—that is, the entire margin account will be liquidated.

Lu Chuiqing tossed and turned nervously that night and couldn't sleep well. She got up at five o'clock on Sunday morning, and the first thing she did was to turn on her phone to check today's gas prices.

He opened the software apprehensively, and the first thing that caught his eyes was the headlines of crude oil futures information. Last night, the international oil price experienced another big drop. The oil price had dropped from $29 to $26.

Lu Chuiqing took a deep breath, and hurried to the study to turn on the computer and enter the futures trading account. As expected, the floating profit and loss of Xiao Zhan's account was booming. At this time, the floating loss had reached 300 million. The initial deposit that was favored was lost.

Now there are more than 9000 million left in Xiao Zhan's account, and the risk rate at this time has tripled from 20.00% to 30.00%.

Lu Chuiqing wailed, bent her head down on the desk, and stared at the K line on the screen with annoyance and worry, wishing to stare at it for some gains, and sighed deeply.

In the past, if someone told Lu Chuiqing that he could lose more than 6000 million in one night, he would not believe it even if he was killed.

And now the facts are in front of his eyes, he actually did it.

In any case, although the floating loss has not really been realized, it is Xiao Zhan's money no matter what, and Lu Chuiqing feels that he still needs to take the initiative to admit his mistake.

Lu Chuiqing took out her mobile phone, took advantage of Xiao Zhan's sleep at this time, and quietly took a picture of the floating profit and loss of the account and sent it, along with a crying and apologetic emoji.

Of course, he must admit his mistakes, but the most important thing now is not to stare at these floating losses. Since he already knows how the market will develop next, the most important thing is how to make good use of the current opportunities.

Lu Chuiqing stared at the trading account, and finally made up her mind that it was for Xiao Zhan's sake. This time, she didn't have to be timid, and decided to buy a big one.

Xiao Zhan's phone was blown up early in the morning by several account managers, and the most anxious one was Manager Zhao.

At the beginning, Manager Zhao spent a month carefully adjusting his positions, which brought more than 4000 million profits to Xiao Zhan's crude oil futures account.Unexpectedly, when he woke up this morning and looked at the account flow and transaction details, he was terrified by the loss of more than 6000 million that occurred overnight.

Although he was already mentally prepared the moment he saw more than [-] orders yesterday, he never expected that Mr. Xiao's lover not only had the guts to bear the loss, but also immediately closed the market after the market opened at [-] o'clock in the morning. Added a long position of [-] lots!

Manager Zhao was already in a hurry, and quickly called Xiao Zhan. At that time, Xiao Zhan was changing clothes, and Manager Zhao's anxious voice came from the hands-free mobile phone.

Manager Zhao: "Mr. Xiao, your account lost more than 6000 million last night! And your wife is still adding more and more positions, and now has a total of 26 lots of long positions! Now the oil price has dropped to 1 US dollars Yes, the margin has taken up more than 60.00 million yuan, and the account risk rate has reached [-]%, the capital risk is too great! I must advise you to stop the loss and close the position immediately!"

Xiao Zhan listened to Manager Zhao's words, but his eyes were fixed on the photo and the crying expression that Lu Chuiqing sent him on the screen at five o'clock this morning, with a helpless smile on his lips, he said to Manager Zhao: "Manager Zhao , if the fund usage rate exceeds 70.00%, I will deal with it, and you don't have to worry about the rest."

"But..." Manager Zhao hesitated to speak, Mr. Xiao didn't know how risky the capital utilization rate would be to reach 60.00% under ten times the leverage, he gritted his teeth, and couldn't help reminding, "Mr. Xiao, Now holding 24 lots, as soon as the oil price drops to $[-], the account loss will reach [-]%."

"I know." Xiao Zhan replied, "I still have a meeting in the morning, so let's not talk about it, go get busy."

All day on Sunday, Lu Chuiqing did almost nothing except keep an eye on the market.

Lu Chuiqing spent more than 26 million for the 600 lots that were added at the price of [-] US dollars. Now the total margin used has reached hundreds of millions.

In just these two days, Lu Chuiqing felt that he had spent all the money he could earn in his life.

The price of oil fluctuated around US$26 that day. At 25 o'clock in the evening, the price of oil dropped another [-] cents to US$[-] a barrel.

When seeing the price drop to 25 US dollars, Lu Chuiqing's heart skipped a beat. The risk rate of the account has reached 60.00% [-]. As long as the price drops a little, it will touch the warning red line of [-]%.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Lu Chuiqing to receive a call from Xiao Zhan.

"Xiaoqing," Xiao Zhan said slowly, "should you pay attention to the risks?"

"I'm sorry..." Lu Chuiqing lay on the sofa in the study, rubbing her sore and tired eyes from staring at the screen for a long time, "But I promise, I will not reach 70.00%... I will try my best!"

At this time, Xiao Zhan was sitting on the sofa in the hotel suite talking on the phone with Lu Chuiqing, and there was a tablet computer on the coffee table in front of him.Suddenly, a news message popped up on the top of the tablet. Xiao Zhan looked up and saw that it was an international news feed.

After reading the news clearly, Xiao Zhan's expression changed a bit, and he said to Lu Chuiqing, "Xiaoqing, read the news."

Hearing this, Lu Chuiqing took down her phone and looked at it. As expected, there was a push of a major breaking news.

The content of the news is that an important oil mining base in the country that launched the international crude oil price war was suddenly attacked by a terrorist organization last night. The country has announced that it will reduce production and call on members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries to stop the price war and resume price negotiations .

Lu Chuiqing gasped, turned over from the sofa and sat up suddenly, and shouted: "Xiao Zhan! We're going to make money!"

The author says:

This chapter is so cool to write!Just a reminder, the oil price that was written earlier in this chapter fell to 21 and lost money because I only held 24 lots at that time. The more you hold, the greater the leverage amplification effect will be. At that time, if it falls to [-], it will lose all.In addition, let me do a simple little science. Some international producers will jointly negotiate prices openly to maintain high prices. Such organizations are called cartel organizations. In most countries, it is illegal for companies to negotiate prices, but international Organizations do not have this limitation.
