Eric Bolling, The Oil Trader

bollingtv_6-30.JPGThe Newark Star-Ledger follows a day of trading (last Thursday) for FBN anchor Eric Bolling, and how the price of oil influences his and other people’s day.

Apparently Bolling keeps busy between hits on FBN by staying active in his previous role at the NYMEX, although his daily trading has been cut from more than 200 transactions a day to just three on Thursday.

At his prime, Bolling was, “one of the biggest individual traders of oil and energy futures,” an area of knowledge that once helped him win a high profile bet.

“R.B.I.,” Bolling’s nickname from his minor league baseball days, also recounts the story of when he lost more than two million dollars in one day.
