A new season of Micro trading starts in Fall 2020*.
As a follow-up to the first year of Micro E-mini contracts, we’re giving you more options to trade. Introducing two options contracts from CME Group designed to build on the strength and liquidity of Micro E-mini futures:
• Options on Micro E-mini S&P 500 futures
