CBOT Product Migration Impact on X_TRADER®


In January 2008, the CME Group will begin migrating CBOT products from the e-cbot platform to CME Globex®. The current migration schedule is as follows:

· January 12, 2008: CBOT Agricultural and Dow products; MGEX and KCBT products
· January 26, 2008: CBOT Interest Rate products


Note: The CBOT Metals products are not currently slated to migrate to CME Globex®. The CBOT metals will continue to trade on the e-cbot platform through June 2008.


TT has released a new TT CBOT Gateway to provide access to CBOT products on CME Globex®.


X_TRADER® Impact

All X_TRADER® workstations that currently trade e-cbot products will be impacted by the CBOT Migration to CME Globex®.


· Customers must ensure that all X_TRADER® workstations have been upgraded to version 7.4.6.11 or higher.

· New workspaces will need to be created or existing workspaces must be modified by using the process outlined in the attached document.

Additional details can be found in the attached document. For additional information and for assistance with creating workspaces for the CBOT migration, please contact your TT Account Manager or the CSC.
