IPE going all electronic - does anybody care?

thanks - one thing I have wondered about is how big an account would be needed to get ICE access (eg a hedge fund)...

$5 million? $10 million? Because with the OTC clearing, that kind of takes care of credit issues doesn't it?
 
Quote from artis74:

I have an exceptionaly low opinion of the tech people of IPE's parent company ICE. They do not know how to run an exchange and they are finding that out the hard way with thier nat gas swaps. Yes the volume has grown but the are on the edge of disaster and TT has ceased offering ICE to new clinets b/ the systems are done so poorly. The same will happen with IPE, didnt it crash 3 times yesterday?? Yes it did.


You say that TT have stopped offering ICE and may soon stop offering IPE. Aren't the two markets developed on the same API?
 
I'm sure it'll still be around, as volume seems to be increasing.

However, the exchange is very slow compared to the CME/CBOT/etc.
