The OPIS Spot Ticker provides live access to gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel spot pricing throughout the trading day. It connects you to the fuel price influence chain in real-time, showing live NYMEX prices alongside real-time trades and expert assessments of every grade of gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel East of the Rockies and on the U.S. West Coast. This spot pricing tool is available online and helps fuel buyers and sellers predict the direction wholesale rack prices are headed, allowing them to time sales and purchases of physical fuel. Suppliers and refiners use it to set the price of their rack barrels and buy barrels competitively, while traders use it as an independent third-party view of NYMEX differentials and calculated spot prices. The OPIS Spot Ticker provides change indicators, customizable market displays, benchmark renewable spot fuel pricing, and live futures data, including after-hours trading and 3:2:1 crack spreads.
