crack spread-cash or front month futures data source?

Question

I can't seem to find a data source for the cash or continuous contract crack spread. I've got a trading idea that, with the world shortage in refinery capacity, UG is leading crude up, not the other way around. The data will help me test the theory. Any assistance with the data, or opinions about my theory, will be very very much appreciatied.

Here's a few crack spread quotes that I found.

If that's not what you're looking for, I'd probably contact a few futures brokers. Some of their customer svc folks may know the answer.

As for the strategy, it's hard to say, but I definitely notice a great deal of volatility during the refinery challenges.

Hope that helps!
