New ICE grains in may
- Thread starter TraDaToR
- Start date
If the ICE makes one simple decision, they'll get at least part of my business: open up trading between 8:15 AM - 10:30 AM EST, avoiding the ridiculous gap in time the CME continues to perpetuate.
How many market-moving reports are published in that time frame, USDA and beyond? And we can't trade it??

Of course, it means all of my back-testing (as related to open/close) is meaningless again...

Thanks for the update Heech.
I actually liked it the way it has been, but hey, probably trading the reports will work too.
Do any of you happen to have a good grain calendar report website?

Muito obrigado.
Well, it *will* now. But it already served the broader trading community's needs by forcing the CME to adjust its trading hours... about friggin' time.
It's not necessarily about trading the report... (I can't imagine what the spreads will be at 8:30 AM EST on a big grain report). It's about enabling price discovery in the most efficient way possible... and holding the market limit up/down after a big report before any contracts can even trade is *not* efficient.
