Options on Micro E-mini futures
Available on S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 in Fall 2020


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
• Options on Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100 futures


Add versatility to your trading strategies
Expand the strategies you can build – market neutral, directional, multi-leg spreads, and more – and the opportunities you can create.

Precisely scale index exposure up or down
Get more flexibility to fine-tune your equity market exposure or tailor a risk profile using options contracts that are 1/10 the size of E-mini counterparts.

Manage risk efficiently with multiple maturities and strikes
Express long- or short-term views with your choice of quarterly, Friday weekly, and end-of-month expirations.

Enjoy anytime, anywhere trading access
Micro E-mini options will trade nearly 24 hours a day and can be accessed worldwide electronically on the CME Globex and CME ClearPort platforms.
*Subject to CFTC regulatory approval
