CME’s Successful Product Debut

Trading on the all-new Micro E-Mini futures contracts launched last week, with almost 2 million contracts traded in the first five days. Concerns about liquidity and cannibalization of trading volume on the larger contracts were almost immediately squashed, as bid/ask spreads have remained tight, and the Micro contracts’ big brothers (ES, YM, NQ, RTY) haven’t shown any signs of losing trading volume.

The Micro E-Mini contracts are already tradable on the Ironbeam platform, along with most of the 3rd party trading platforms that we offer. If you do not have a trading account with us already, you can sign up for a two week demo of the Ironbeam trading platform below.
