Brent Crude Oil vs. WTIC Light Crude Oil

The price of Brent Crude Oil and WTIC Crude Oil has been heading up, as shown on the following charts.

The question is, will the spread between Brent and WTIC begin to widen again, in favour of Brent, any time soon?

As shown on the last (ratio) chart, after breaking through near-term support, price is attempting to move up on positively-diverging indicators, to suggest that the spread may, in fact, widen. I'll be watching to see if the MACD histogram moves above zero, along with a positive signal-line cross-over.
