The IntercontinentalExchange (ICE) has announced that it will end pit session
trading at the end of February 2008, as trading for futures contracts is
primarily electronic. The futures contracts that will transition to fully
electronic markets will be coffee, cocoa, sugar, cotton, orange juice, equity
indexes and currencies. Pit session trading for all options on futures
contracts will continue. Options of futures contracts at ICE Futures U.S.
have not yet begun trading electronically, and a timeline for the introduction
of electronic options will be provided in the near future.
The contract symbols that will be affected are listed below.
