Flat price keeps going! $67 was a tempting target as Brent climbed this morning, stretching out its fingers to reach that elusive level. It brushed $67 at 13:45 BST and another during the window, but failed to gain a toehold and came to the European close at $66.92/bbl.

Another week brings another selection of new trade ideas from Onyx Research, this time looking at trades in Crude and Distillate swaps. Our weekly Onyx Alpha report presents speculative and hedging trades based on technical analysis and data-driven tradecraft methods on Onyx Commitment of Traders (COT) and Flux Financials data.
