CME wants to keep extended hours( despite ABCD hedgers opinions ): http://www.chicagobusiness.com/arti...ains-trading-pause-doesnt-make-sense-cmes-ceo There was a short survey last week about extended hours. I received it by mail and sent it back. Perhaps it's still possible to give your opinion.
There's also a link to the survey on the CME website, just filled it out yesterday. We have gone through 3 quarters of USDA reports being released while the market is trading, and they've been FAR less volatile than earlier years.... when markets often gapped up 4-5% by pit open. These Luddites resisting this should just retire and go work on their golf game.
