NYBOT on ICE
side-by-side Electronic trading FAQ's

1. Why is NYBOT now allowing electronic trading access to its Agricultural Futures contracts?

NYBOT believes that offering electronic trading in our core Agricultural Futures products alongside traditional open outcry access will allow both existing and new users of our markets the ability to choose how best to take advantage of the broad and deep liquidity these contracts have provided for many years.

This will also allow NYBOT's global member and customer base maximum flexibility in how they access our markets as well as leverage the technology capabilities at ICE, with whom we have a merger agreement.


3. Are the electronically traded contract terms different from the existing, floor-traded contracts?

No, the contract that are to be listed for electronic trading are the same contracts already trading in the open outcry sessions today. Traders will be able to initiate a position electronically and liquidate it via an open outcry trade, or vice versa. In other words, the electronic and open outcry contracts are fully fungible. Listing these contracts electronically simply offers market users two ways to access the same contract.
