    Guess what the correlators are, and I will buy you a $100 gift certificate at the restaurant of your choice.

    My clients and pricks with a Bloomberg terminal are exempt from this fun little game.

    None of the correlators are stocks or stock indices - they are commodity futures completely out of the equity space.

    This is live, one minute data.

    one of them is 6E for sure. Others might also be currencies.

    Hope you send me at least a fraction of gift - for being correct on one (at least) and being the first to answer :)

    No to 6E. I think I should limit each ET Member to three guesses total.

    Yes, wrong on 6E, I didn't read the 2 year thing. With havoc in europe, can't be ES.

    2nd guess: CL

    Good to know what these are eventually - proves how weak is my market structure knowledge.

    CL is a fantastic guess, and indeed the correlation is 94%, but strike two on you.

    First ET Member to guess all three. If someone else guesses one of them, then maybe I should figure out a partial gift certificate or something - which I am fine with.
     
  8. Grains? Corn, Wheat, Beans.

    No on those three.

    Soybean Oil is 89 % positive correlation to ES, BTW.
     
  10. what is copper?
