Trading ACCESS vs. EMINY

PohPoh · Sep 24, 2006

I've traded the EMINY but not ACCESS..
Can anyone describe the difference, pros/cons??

Thanks..

As far as I know, there are 4 platforms for E-trading:
Globex, ECBOT, ACCESS, EmiNY..
Is this true?

Not every contract trades on mutiple platforms.
You have a choice of the front end used to access the exchange, not what exchange to trade on in most cases.

What are you looking to trade?

not platforms, exchanges, i meant.

ACCESS is on GLOBEX/CME now.
So all electronic NYMEX Crude is traded this way, as far as I know.

I'm just trying to organize what markets are electronic and mini's, and their respective margins, hours, etc..
any good links??

Access was supposed to be going away due to the CME deal. I am pretty sure it did around mid June.
