"Speculated on WTI Crude and USD to assist CFO in mitigating FX risk and facilitating international commodity transactions"
I think the potential recruiter/hiring manager might be put off by the word "speculated." Yes, you assisted the CFO, but maybe you want to write it differently. Can you think of another verb that would work that shows a more positive influence on the project and on the firm?
To me, I would think that researching, trading, investing, or positioning might be something someone would hire you for. Unless you do want to be hired as a speculator, which seems a bit dodgy. But I could be reading it all wrong.
