  • Eurodollars
  • 10-Year T-Note
  • E-mini S&P 500
  • Euro
  • Japanese Yen
  • WTI Light Sweet Crude Oil

The report uses a template that:

  • Combines background information and explanations as well as comparisons to the previous quarter
  • Includes historical price graphs on key markets
  • Offers detailed charts of Market Width in USD and Market Depth in Contracts (Top-of-the-Book) for the same six products

There is also an explanation of how to analyze liquidity, a caveat, and a concluding note.
