Beans closed?

WTF?

Five minutes in to RTH on ECBOT and I got zero trades. Corn and wheat are chugging along...obviously not a exchange issue.

Anyone know what's up?

Seems to me that the pit is down too. Not seeing activity there either.

Good time for CBOT to crap out with interest in grains sky high

Wasn't the CME/CBOT merger supposed to fix these issues?

The electronic Soybean meal and oil are trading, only electronic Soybean trading is down.

Both electronic Soybean meal and oil is trading down and pit Soybean is currently down -11 pts.

It's time to switch broker if he telling you that Soybeans is limit up.
