Hey guys, I did a search on ET, but didn't come up with anything satisfactory, so thought I would ask here if anyone has tried their hand trading Brent, and what their impression of it versus CL is. I know they have a few Brent derivative products at nymex, and at least that main one on ICE. Just curiosity about fills/slippage, liquidity, hours of activity, how close they track, just general stuff about our neighborly north sea contract and how it differs from CL.Thanks.
I don't know nothin about no Brent but if you want to diversify short some coffee right now. Juan Valdez just called me and he is try to unload his hedge.

Very nice can you short 10 at 75.95 put a take profit order in at 75.50 and go get some coffee?

If you trade it at the ICE is about the same as trading CL on Nymex - don't even think of trading Brent on Nymex, though.
Symbol is COIL, in the attached picture you'll see 10 levels in the DOM because IB limits it to 10, but if you have a different feed you get to see the whole book (in ICE).
And yeah, short that breakfast (coffee, cocoa, orange juice and sugar - and Milk IV)

I was just tossing about the idea of moving to Eastern Europe for a while, and was hoping Brent would make for better trading hours than CL.
