The trading platform upgrade aligns forward structures, improving trader decisions and continuity
Sparta, a trading intelligence platform, unveiled Ascend to Clarity, a major upgrade to its platform, designed to enhance forward views for oil trading desks by integrating structured curves, arbitrage, freight economics, and full data access.
The upgrade strengthens the Curves layer with Rolling Front Month functionality and expanded Time Spreads, providing traders with consistent analysis across time and clearer positioning decisions.
The new Freight DPP Dashboard integrates vessel supply, route economics, and crude context, enabling coordinated assessment of freight and crude markets while reducing reliance on fragmented tools.
A rebuilt Arbs Dashboard consolidates arbitrage workflows, supports Diesel Custom Arbs, and expands coverage across diesel, jet, and naphtha.
Sparta Arb Signals provide real-time alerts on market structural changes.
The expanded Data Marketplace offers full platform data via API or bulk download, supporting integration into proprietary models and AI workflows.
"Conviction comes from seeing change early and understanding it in context," said Tom Gorenbar Peled, Chief Product Officer at Sparta. "We’ve strengthened the core architecture first, and that foundation allows traders to identify structural shifts sooner and act with confidence. In markets moving at the speed of today’s geopolitical environment, that foundation is the only way to act with conviction."
