A whale address beginning with 0xa314 rotated into a crude oil spread trade, taking a long position in WTI and a short position in Brent after prices surged, Hyperinsight said. The combined notional value was about $15.1464 million. At publication, the wallet held 86,000 WTI longs and 90,000 Brent shorts. The position was down about $444,400, reflecting unrealized PnL (paper profit or loss), a $45,900 realized reduction loss, and $15,000 in funding fees (periodic payments between leveraged traders).
