No, it starts from 2001. Thanks for suggesting.

I'm looking for kospi 200 futures data, daily. From beginning 3 May 1996 to current. Can anyone help ? Any good data supplier with complete data - don't seem to find any with kospi data.

I don't think the wheat market is dangerous per se. It's just that wheat prices are currently at a high level, which is why it is more volatile. This applies to any market. When it is trading actively at a high level, it tends to be more volatile. My take on the wheat market (Jul 07...

For me, I need to focus on only one - based on your feedback, looks like ecbot has the higher volume. Also, I guess in the long run, the floor based cbot would be phased out - as has happened in so many other exchanges. So from now on, it's just the ecbot for me.

thanks for replies. I'm still looking thru the various contracts. Because I want to plot long term graphs, I'd prefer to use only 1 contract. Seems to me that the Z (dec) contract has the most volume over the contract life. Trading wise, I may trade different contracts, but I cannot be...

For those interested, I've found a good source for daily data. http://futures.tradingcharts.com/chart/CW/C7

I'm new to trading Ag. Plan to trade wheat on cbot. Can anybody advise on the following: 1) Is it better to trade on open auction or electronically ? (I trade thru IB) 2) I am hoping to just focus on one contract month (at the most 2). Which contracts are the most liquid and tradeable ?
