Great question. Judging by some of the other really shady shit that Banks trading Eurex were able to skate on it's a damned pertinent question. Eurex has been operating on a "no action" letter (a waiver of sorts) from the CFTC since forever.
Rotter never bothered me, personally. But then again, I was never scalping either. I made good use of the Euribor, Gilt, and Short Sterling markets.
