Heads up, starting Feb 1st 2020:
CME has raised the fees for the monthly data as follows: each exchange is now $10 per month and the bundle is $30 per month for NON PRO full market depth( CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX). Keep in mind certain FCM's also charge a handling fee of $1 to $2 per exchange.
CME has KEPT the fees for the monthly data TOP of the BOOK at $1 per exchange or $3 for the bundle BUT will raise these prices in April 2020.
CME has also raised the transaction/exchange fees as follows:
Per side exchange fees for the ES, YM, NQ, RTY, EMD and few others are going from $1.18 per side to $1.23 per side
Per side exchange fees for the MICROS MES, MNQ, MYM, MR2K REMAINS the SAME
Our brokers here at Cannon will be happy to assist, answer questions, look at possible alternatives ( perhaps markets like bonds with lower per side fees? perhaps using top of book data?) and much more!
