Dow Eminis

thanks Trader5287

 

More volume increase 50,556 contracts on April 22nd.

 

C'mon Dow futures ... half way to 100,000.

Still tricky to scalp at present volume.

 

I hope that EUREX will kill them both (CBOT & CME) !

I'd rather have a competitive marketplace and neither a US nor a European monopoly/duopoly. Too bad S&P controls who can market S&P futures. At least there is no trademark on Treasurys and currencies.

 

Actually, I was reading (don't know where) that the CME and CBOT consider the size, tick size, expiration, etc. proprietary on their financial contracts since they were the ones to analyze, market , and develop them. Should be interesting to see how this situation works out next year.
