You can monitor the electronic over-night session by removing the “r” from each symbol (example: remove the “r” from “rhu” to get “hu” to get the symbol for the electronic over-night price quotes for gasoline).

Also, please note that retail gasoline prices tend to be at a $0.75 to $1.25/gallon premium to the wholesale gasoline price as traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange, which would mean that a wholesale price of $2.30/gallon would indicate a retail price of $3.05 to $3.55, depending on where in the U.S. the retail pump might be located.
