  • 90-day Jan'26 EBOB crack longs are now out of the money based on Flux Insight's entry-level estimates. We still see around 540kb of net buying vs Onyx, leaving these players vulnerable to stopping out.

  • Flow-wise, we have seen good trade house selling vs Onyx behind the weakness this week, taking their net long position from -660kb on 08 Dec to -2.4mb on 12 Dec.

Watch for a potential retracement to the neckline of this triangle at $12.25/bbl. A good technical sell-side signal would then be a resistance at the neckline, while a break above the neckline would encourage further support.
