How often prices update
With Pro, oil prices refresh every 15 seconds while the app is open; without Pro, every 30 minutes. Daily closes and EIA figures update on their publication schedules. Prices may be delayed.
15 energy benchmarks
• During the trading day: WTI crude oil, Brent crude oil, natural gas, gasoline futures, ethanol futures and Urals crude
• Daily closes: Alaska North Slope, OPEC Basket, Oman, Dubai, Western Canadian Select, Gulf Coast jet fuel and Mont Belvieu propane
• Weekly: US retail gasoline and diesel averages
• Each card shows the price per unit, the change since the previous close, the open and the day's range
• Spot price and basis for WTI and Brent, with a contango or backwardation label based on the front-month basis
Oil price alerts
• Get a push notification when a price moves above or below your target, even when the app is closed
• Price alerts are checked on the server with each price update, and each alert waits 30 minutes before it can fire again
• One alert on WTI or Brent without Pro; unlimited alerts on any benchmark with Pro
Charts and price history
• Tap an intraday benchmark for its 1-day chart, plus 5-day, 1-month and 1-year charts with Pro
• Compare today's price with a week, a few months or up to 2 years ago, and see the biggest gainer and the biggest decline
• Charts and history cover the six benchmarks that update during the day
Oil spreads and EIA reports

• Opt in to a notification when the weekly EIA report is out
Market hours and Focus Mode
• A market status chip shows open, closed or break with a countdown, based on regular US energy futures hours
