Personally I think much of the YM volume increase is just current market conditions.

I won't be surprised if CME/CBOT arranged better fees with large traders to increase liquidity in the YM. I wondered if anybody has done an analysis of the number of large contracts traded vs small contracts with the move to Globex.

Why has CBOT never offered the DJIA 10.00 contract electronic during normal hrs? Anyone know? They have side by side trading for some of the ags.

I think it's the market. There were big days like this in November.
