    Hi I've got a load of markets to follow on my system, but I'm perplexed by the number of exchanges available to trade them on. Can anyone lend me a hand in figuring out which ones I should be looking at? I've listed markets and available exchanges below. I don't have volume and open interest figures, which is making it hard to determine which exchanges are the most liquid......

    British Pound - PBOT, MACE, SIMEX, CME
    Canadian Dollar - PBOT, MACE, CME, FINEX
    Coffee CSCE, SICOM
    Corn - CBT, KCX, MACE, MATIF, TGE
    Cotton - TGE, NYCE, CCX, OME, OME, TCE
    Crude - IPE, NYMEX, SIMEX
    Euro - CME, MACE
    Eurodollar - CME, LIFFE, MACE, SIMEX
    Gold - CBT, SIMEX, COMEX, KOFEX
    Japanese Yen - PBOT, MACE, CME
    Live Cattle - CME, BMF, SFE, MACE
    Palladium - NYMEX, TCE
    Soybean Oil - MACE, CBT
    Swiss Franc - PBOT, MACE, CME, FINEX
    T-Bill - CME, MACE
    T-Bond - TSX, CBT
    T-Note - CBT, MACE, FINEX
    Wheat - CBT, EOE, SFE, KCBT, LCE, MACE, MATIF

    Thanks in advance

    If you don't have volume and open interest figures then go and get them from the websites on the Exchanges. This will then answer all your questions.

    haven't you already asked - and had answered - this same question before?

    you know, i'll be quite frank, i find it hard to believe you're about to trade a system that follows so many different products and yet you seem to lack the resourcefulness to even come up with even the most basic of data in the world...

    come on dude, wake up a bit

    US Exchanges:

    CME, CBOT (Chicago)
    NYMEX/COMEX, CSCE, NYCE (New York)

    CME - Currencies, Eurodollar, T-Bills, Live cattle
    CBOT - Corn, Soybean Oil, Wheat, T-Notes, T-Bonds
    CSCE - Coffee
    NYCE - Cotton
    COMEX - Gold, Palladium
    NYMEX - Crude Oil ("Light Sweet Crude")

    FINEX (New York) is an exchange for currencies,
    specializing in EFP ("exchange for physical") AFAIK.

    IPE (London) might be interesting for "Brent Crude Oil".
