still waiting for an answer to my question: what's the advantage of trading from ICE trading floor?? ICE team, anyone??? surf
I can't imagine that there is a benefit to trading from a trading floor any more. ICE obviously just wants access to their products, and the trading floor was just part of the deal. They got saddled with a legacy liability in order to get at the good stuff.
