Futures options volume by products

[TraDaToR]

Hello,

I am quite new at trading futures options and I am glad of the quality option forum and posters we have here.

The problem is that electronic futures options are thinly traded and I don't want to send order at the pit.

So do you know a website where we can see the cumulative daily options volume per futures product? What are the instruments that have a bit of electronic volume?

Thanks a lot.

Have you taken a look at the CME's "Daily Volume & Open Interest" reports? You can get the total number of calls/puts traded for each contract with a breakdown per Globex/Pit session.

electronic options on futures have ample liquidity depending on the product group. ES & GE have good volume. I've traded these options electronically for years.

Thanks a lot guys.

What about gold? Crude? 10 year note?

Can you get some fills at midpoint without having to spend 3 hours to get it?

Thanks.
