@wombat I have suspicion, that this spread trade got so many people jumped on it, that it became un-tradeble. When so many people start unwinding it at the end of the cycle – it drives spread wide again. (In fact it may create so many fake shorts on front months, that it keeps oil from going down, until those shorts are closed (today))
