Well, perhaps it is no surprise to see that oil prices are testing the top end of the range after trying the other side for most of this week. That has now seen the price of May Brent crude press towards $84 per barrel this afternoon. The gains have taken most of the morning to unfold though and it remains to be seen, if Brent can vault that $84 per barrel mark this time, as that is something that has eluded it for the past 5 trading days. The high seen so far has been set just above $83.80. Brent for May delivery is currently trading at $83.79
