📄 Prompt Template
Formulate a hedge ladder timing plan for [FuelTypes] aligned to contract renewals [ContractRenegotiationDates], projected consumption [VolumeForecast], and a [HedgePolicy] (e.g., 30/60/90 collars) with a price ceiling of [PriceCeiling]. Sequence entries/exits to smooth P&L volatility while preserving upside during low-price windows. Decide when to switch to alternative energy contracts (LNG, HVO, electricity) and how to phase charging/bunkering commitments. Output format: (1) Hedge Ladder table [Month, % Hedged, Instrument, Tenor, Strike/Cap]; (2) Decision Triggers [Forward Curve, Crack Spread, FX]; (3) Sensitivity chart narrative vs spot; (4) Compliance checklist (accounting, margining, covenants). Conclude with a governance calendar and approved authority limits.
