Are you asking if the "Pit Traded" contract is the same as CL on Globex? Most Crude is traded upstairs on Globex. Be more specific with your question, it is very vague. el surdo
My datafeed gave me access to GBX CL.. DTN IQFEED but not CL. So there is a pit and an electronic CL then ? Are they the same size?
No, the pit and globex use the same contract. http://www.cmegroup.com/trading/energy/crude-oil/light-sweet-crude_contract_specifications.html
I find it revolting that someone this clueless thinks that it's OK to charge hundreds of dollars for trading "advice".
Not a expert, but the ICE exchange do list the CL financial contract. So maybe you are confusing the Globex CL wich is physical settle vs the ICE CL. Not sure, but I think that is a bit harder to get good data for the ICE contract.
I was thinking the same thing..... but btw, what's the difference between ice mountain and aquafina? I heard aqua is a carcinogen ... from some tit on a forum board ....
