Quote from Vienna:
Sorry, did not paste right.
Yes,with corn etc. you are correct... is the general idea that all these markets will eventually go electronic?
That would be my opinion. Check the volume on things like corn, crude oil and gold on the NYMEX. You'll be surprised at the volume.
The thing is, there's large volume in enough electronic contracts that I can't think of many reasons to trade with the pit.
