  1. Any idea what caused this distortion? Spreads were wild.

    First time in a while I've seen the double flies give someone a payday.

    It was a pretty crazy news day yesterday
     
  3. Big flows in some near flies, apparently... Possibly all turn-related.

    What are white Eurodollars?

    I only know of the regular Eurodollars (EDA in Bloomberg)
     
  5. The whites are the first four quarterly contracts (followed by the reds, greens, etc).

    Is that a color coding based on some system?
     
  7. The origins of this have sorta been lost in time... Allegedly, it's just how Reuters colored them a long time ago and it stuck.
