Trading Mini Agricultural products

[jeremymgp]

Hello,

I'm wondering if there is any way to add the new Mini-ag products, that is mini-sized Wheat, Corn and Soybeans to the Instrument Manager. These symbols trade during European and Asian hours as well as US, so they may well be useful for international traders also.

Symbols are YC, YK, and YW but they don't show up in the Instrument Manager list. Any way I can add them?

Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,

You can add them by going to the Instrument Manager under the Tools menu and click New. This will open up the Instrument Editor where you can set up the contract.
You need to enter the contract specifications under the Definitions and Misc tab.

Then when the instrument is listed in the Instrument Manager, you need to highlight it in the middle section and move it to the default list with the '<' button.
