    Unleaded supplies will come in pretty much as predicted, perhaps a slight build. Paying $0.60 above wholesale, Southeastern US paying less than that.... soooo.... lots of gas out there.

  4. It does appear you're on to something, but where's the trade? I can't find it, but I am a rank amateur. Hopefully you're making money on this. I'll keep looking.

    Everybody is saying there is a buildup in unleaded.

    My guess, based on this method.... is tomorrow (DOE report) we see an unexpected drawdown. If I'm right... I am going to stfu and learn to trade this.

  7. I don't get it. I calculated the spread to be 0.51, which should be inventory build up based on your post? Maybe we should fix the region for comparison.

    I have been using "cheapgas dot com" and sampling various small and mid-sized cities east of the Mississippi but not in the Northeast. Yeah it was kinda close... I was seeing $1.99 in several cities so this one might be too close to call.

    Drawdown. That makes 6 for 6. And this one was a big surprise for the market. Time to delete this entire thread and open up a commodities account. :p

    Maybe besides the Pilot price you could use Murphy at Walmart. That seems to be the market price wherever you go.
