Three New E-micro Forex Futures - Now Available For Trading
1/10 the standard contract size.*
Nine Currency Pairs. Quoted in Interbank and IMM Terms. Physically Delivered.

CME Group recently launched three new E-micro Forex futures contracts: CAD/USD, CHF/USD and JPY/USD. With the addition of these new contracts, we now offer nine E-micro Forex futures. These futures contracts are physically delivered and one-tenth the size of our standard FX futures.

The three new E-micro Forex contracts along with the three previously offered U.S. denominated currency pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD and AUD/USD) allow for perfect offsets with corresponding standard-size FX futures on a 10:1 ratio, as well as one lot hedges with Dow Jones CME FX$INDEX futures contracts.

View E-Micro Informational Sheet.

* Roughly 1/10th the standard contract size with a notional value range of $6,000 to $16,000.
