Most securities and commodities trade for a single session, lasting several hours each day, while others are traded during multiple sessions lasting many hours. Exchange trading systems, such as GLOBEX from the CME, offer around-the-clock trading for an increasing number of contracts. CQG displays the trading day for each market, beginning with the morning opening in each market's primary trading location or beginning with the Exchange's established opening time. For selected contracts traded through the GLOBEX system, the CME has established an opening time coinciding with the opening of the Far Eastern markets. For example: The CME has established that the opening time for Eurodollars is 14:00 CT, (2:00 PM CT). Therefore, the CQG daily chart for Eurodollars contains data from 14:00 to 13:59 (the close of the primary session) the following "day."
