Spx is cboe not cme. I actually clerked there. Only options. No futures. Select options pits still have some people.The SPX pit at the CBOE is still very active. A lot of volume goes through here. If you watch time and sales, floor trades are now marked as such and you can see the volume.
Referring to the SPX options pit at the CBOE. Lots of volume here. Article originally quoted was about CBOE shutting pits.hilarious if you're referring to futures. no volume there
Your right, should have been clearer.You originally stated S&P pit. Very different than SPX.
