Please note that due to the market volatility, some of the key levels may have already been reached and scenarios played out.
Risk Management: an idea here could be to enter on some potential dips (price getting back to support levels) by allocating one quarter (1/4th) of the position, then averaging down to lower supports with successively one third (1/3rd) and two fifth (2/5th) in case of further dips and depending on the volatility of each chosen security…
If you want to set a stop-loss, I suggest that you place it according to your risk appetite:
- Below the previous swing low (depending on your timeframe/time horizon).
- Or just use some Average True Range (ATR) multiplicator.
Investing entries (medium to long-term; my opinion; support levels for stocks): long.

A good way to diversify the construction of your oil and gas investment portfolio is to use a variety of assets for a balanced exposure to the energy sector and its industrial components, such as the logistics and shipping industrial areas. Given that these are multinational corporations with their fleets of vessels spread all over the globe, across all the oceans, their shares would thus constitute a good way to give your portfolio some sea breeze.
