30+ years on the NYMEX floor, three books, and hundreds of television appearances — Dan Dicker's perspective on energy markets is unmatched.
Dan Dicker has devoted over 30 years to expanding his knowledge and developing a unique perspective on the energy markets. After graduating from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, Dan joined the floor at the New York Mercantile Exchange, where he traded his own accounts in energy futures: crude oil, natural gas, gasoline, and heating oil.
Dan's focus and deep understanding of the financial energy markets gave him unique insights which enabled him to find value in exploration & production, refining, and other energy sector stocks. Earlier in his career Dan designed and supervised the introduction of the NYMEX PJM electricity futures contract, which was the basis of NYMEX's resurgence in the clearing of power market contracts.
As a licensed commodities trade advisor, Dan is widely recognized for his expertise in fundamental and technical analysis of the energy markets — including supply and demand statistics (DOE, EIA), CFTC trade reportage, volume and open interest, and multiple charting methodologies.
Starting in 2002, Dan has appeared as an energy analyst with all major financial news networks. He was a regular columnist at Jim Cramer's TheStreet.com and RealMoney.com for more than a decade, and was also a trade analyst and contributor at Oilprice.com. He was featured as the cover story in the October 2013 issue of Futures magazine.
Dan is the author of three books on the energy markets:
The Energy Word — live market analysis, trade ideas, Q&A, and portfolio review every month.
