Hi,

Can someone explain the difference between Coffee Future 'KC' (ICE) and 'KT' (NYMEX)?

Which one I have to take? There are also two different Trading Hours:

CME Group --> 18:00-17:00 ET
ICE --> 4:15 AM - 1:30 PM

Thanks!

Unfortunately there is no volume for the KT contract.

Thus, you have to trade the KC contract.

(Unfortunately because live data for ICE contracts is very expensive.)

Best regards, Myrrdin

Hallo myrrdin

So I have to pay the $117 for ICE Data Fee?

btw: 4:15 AM - 1:30 PM is the trading hour for the electronic market, not the Pit session, right?

I do not pay the ICE data fee. I am medium to longterm trader and usually hold my trades for weeks or months. For the selection of the trade delayed price data is good enough. I receive it via Trade Navigator. To enter a trade I receive live bid / ask data from my broker.

As far as I know futures are only traded in the electronic market.

Best regards, Myrrdin
