    Hi,

    Anyone know anything about the NYMEX daily options, listed on Globex? I don't recall coming across a press release about these. I've heard they're traded OTC... but I've never seen them on Globex before.

    Using EOSTrader today (with the strategy builder), under instruments, I noticed "crude oil short term" as a future type. I was able to pull up an instrument for any given day (they're named 'D01' through 'D31'). I don't know if these are actually being quoted or not... not sure how to pull it up on any of my other screens, only in EOSTrader's strategy builder.

    Just curious whether anyone has more info to add.

    But if they're in EOSTrader, then there's a plan to make them available electronically...?

    Anyone know a retail trading platform that allows you to trade these daily options now?
     
  7. I'm fairly certain same and next day options are OTC only.

    I was afraid of that. Anyone know of a way for a retail trader to trade OTC ($100K level)?
