QM volume

T

Is there a reason why QM volume seems to have dropped? A while back , it was trading above 50K contracts per day, nowadays its trading in the 20-30K range.

thanks
 
Tatsimon,


you have a link for that volume ?
and volume for the big CL contract ?



Roctrend,


Do you have a link to that ICE exchange ?
 
What crude contract has the best spread
and liquidity ?
CLH7 on Nymex or WTI on ICE ?
Do the contracts on these exchanges
have the same size ?

Which brokers offer ICE futures ?
 
Is CL = WTI in contract size ?


the average spread for CL = 1.7 cent (minimum tick size 1 cent)
the average spread for QM = 3.4 cent(minimum tick size 2.5 cent)


so CL definitely the way to go for active trading
 
Hi virgin
Nymex CL is the original light sweet WTI contract
the ICE benchmark is the Brent crude.

both have the same size (1000 barrel por contract)
 
my broker is showing

QM volume of 22K vs CL volume of 182K on globex today

needless to say the 1/2 size QM can still be worth trading

as with all the volatility in crude oil

one need not "lose" as much if wrong on a spec position
