What is the difference between CME and CBOT futures?
While they share many similarities, there are some key differences between them. The CBOT focuses more on agricultural commodities and interest rate products, while the CME has a larger presence in equity index products and foreign exchange.
The CME contracts are based on the Bitcoin Reference Rate (BRR) index, which aggregates bitcoin trading activity across four bitcoin exchanges - itBit, Kraken, BitStamp, and GDAX - between 3pm and 4pm GMT. On the other hand, CBOE will price contracts with a single auction at 4 pm on the final settlement date.
The Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) is a commodity exchange established in 1848. The Chicago Board of Trade originally traded only agricultural commodities such as wheat, corn, and soybeans. Now it offers options and futures contracts on a wide range of products including gold, silver, U.S. Treasury bonds, and energy.
On July 12, 2007, the CBOT merged with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) to form CME Group. CBOT and three other exchanges (CME, NYMEX, and COMEX) now operate as designated contract markets (DCM) of the CME Group.
The New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) is the world's largest physical commodity futures exchange and is today part of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group (CME Group), which is the world's leading and most diverse derivatives marketplace.
CME activities are accredited, evidence-based, and designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of healthcare professionals. Non-CME activities, while still informative, do not meet the same rigorous standards and may not carry the same professional recognition.
CME is specifically targeted toward physicians and other medical professionals. It's designed to maintain, develop, or increase the knowledge, skills, and professional performance of a physician. CEUs are designed for a broader range of professionals, including nurses, therapists, educators, and more.
CME Group merged with the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), a Designated Contract Market offering products subject to CBOT rules and regulations, in 2007.
The CBOT is an exchange providing trading in derivatives contracts and clearinghouse functions. It allows traders to buy and sell contracts on several products in asset classes such as agriculture, energy, metals, equities, bonds, and exchange rates. The majority of its trades are conducted electronically.
Built in 1930 for the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), it has served as the primary trading venue of the CBOT and later the CME Group, formed in 2007 by the merger of the CBOT and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.

Continuing medical education consists of educational activities which serve to maintain, develop, or increase the knowledge, skills, and professional performance and relationships that a physician uses to provide services for patients, the public, or the profession.
Suzanne Sprague, CME's global head of clearing and post-trade services, says: “It's very much our role as a systemically important clearing house to not only manage the risk that we have here, but keep in mind the financial stability of the broader marketplace.”
Clearing and transaction fees, which make up the largest chunk of its revenue, jumped 20.7% to $1.18 billion, while total revenue surged 19.2% to $1.44 billion. Revenue in its market data segment rose 9% in the fourth quarter to $167 million compared with the same period last year.
Prominent disadvantages included technological barriers, poor design, cost, lack of sufficient technological skill, and time.
By definition, "[CME] consists of educational activities which serve to maintain, develop, or increase the knowledge, skills, and professional performance and relationships that a physician uses to provide services for patients, the public, or the profession".
If you don't earn enough CME credits, you might not be able to renew your state board medical license. Most states require you to earn a specific number of CME credits over a certain time period to maintain your license to practice in the state.
Bitcoin (BTC) CME gaps are the differences in price between the closing price on a given trading day and the opening price on the following trading day on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, or CME (one of the largest and most diverse financial exchanges globally).
