Dear CME® Globex® Customers,

CME is pleased to announce the successful launch of Release 1 of the CME Globex Options Enhancements, including CME Eurodollar Options on Globex via CME iLink®. As a result of this launch:

  • CME Globex customers can access CME Eurodollar options and spreads, with indicative quotes, 23 hours a day with a market data network configuration change;
  • CME Enhanced Options System access is now available 23 hours a day; and,
  • Please note: CME Globex TraderTM can no longer access CME Eurodollar options.

Effective Sunday, August 28, in response to customer requests, CME will make CME Eurodollar outright options with indicative quotes accessible to current CME Market Data API (MD API) customers with a simple subscription change. Access to CME Eurodollar spreads will still require a market data network change. Further details on this expansion will be disseminated later this week.
