What ScalarPhase does

Three practices, one standard: first principles, honest measurement, working results. Every engagement starts with a conversation about your exposure — not a pitch.

01 — Advisory

Risk management advisory

For energy and financial firms carrying real market exposure — producers, consumers, traders, funds.

  • Market-risk framework design: mandates, limits, and governance that fit how you actually trade
  • VaR / CVaR measurement and honest tail-risk assessment
  • Stress scenarios built from your positions, not generic shocks
  • Hedging programs across futures and options — energy and financial
  • Exposure reviews: crude, natural gas, refined products, rates, equities
  • Second-opinion risk reviews for boards and management

02 — Systems

Risk system builds

Real-time risk engines, designed and built — not specified and outsourced.

  • Real-time portfolio valuation across futures, stocks, and options
  • Risk engines computing VaR, CVaR, and stress scenarios tick-by-tick
  • Options analytics: pricing, Greeks, and scenario P&L
  • Curve, spread, and seasonality analytics for energy futures
  • Data pipelines: market data ingestion, normalization, history
  • Desktop and cloud architectures — built to be operated, not just demoed

03 — Education

Teaching markets properly

From first principles, for traders, teams, and the curious.

  • Options as investment vehicles — structure, pricing, and behavior
  • Futures curves, calendar spreads, and seasonality
  • Volatility: what it is, what it isn't, how it trades
  • Practical risk management for working traders
  • Team workshops and 1-on-1 instruction
  • Short-form video content — coming soon

Engagements

How it works

Step 1

Conversation

A working discussion about your exposure, your systems, or what you want to learn. No pitch decks — bring the actual problem.

Step 2

Scope

A defined engagement: objectives, deliverables, and timeline. Advisory, build, or teaching — scoped to what will actually move the needle.

Step 3

Delivery

Working output: frameworks you can run, systems you can operate, knowledge your team keeps. Then a handoff, not a dependency.
