Looks like one of those fake dashboards the Indians manipulate the DOM to make you think you have lots of money or little money...

I don't quite understand it all that well myself, but I know his 20x leverage means he only put up 1/20th of the 15.3 million. And that was fully liquidated. Meaning he lost approximately 800,000 dollars.
800k gone in just a few hours.

And if oil stayed above $95 what would the outcome have been?

Short positions are betting the price drops like a rock. Long positions are believed to increase exponentially in value.
Guy didn’t realize Trump cucked him by not only providing escorts through the Strait but also calming the masses about availability of oil.
When the guy opened his long position, it was already at a several year high and it dropped 30% so he either has to sell at a loss or hold his position and hope for an Iran 2.0

It's leveraged at 20x. So if the price of oil had gone up 1% his margin would have gained 20%. 5% = 100%. Etc. At least, I think that's how it works. I wouldn't be doing any of this shite myself. I don't understand it well.

He cant sell it at a loss it dropped below the call price, and he cant hold it because their is a short term deadline. He lost it all.
In answer to the other question, the option price was 95 and change, he had close to 200K options so every dollar it went above that price he would net 200K. But remember when he bought the options the price was not at 95 it was below that and he was betting it would soar to 95 and beyond in a very tight time period.

Rule #1 if it runs up or down. Dont buy at the top or sell at the bottom.

I hope it was a Democrat Congressman or Senator.
