CME Launches TeleSTAT System to Provide Customers Access To Recent Trade Data

Date 06/12/2004

CME, the largest U.S. futures exchange, announced today it has launched TeleSTAT, an automated telephone system, which will enhance CME Globex® users’ access to trading information. CME TeleSTAT is the first system of its kind among futures and options exchanges.

“Introducing this technology is another step in our ongoing commitment to increase CME customer satisfaction,” said CME President and Chief Operating Officer Phupinder Gill. “We want to continue to deliver excellent service for our customers, and telephone access to trade execution information was seen as a simple, yet important way of doing this. TeleSTAT is a system we feel will enhance the way customers communicate with CME.”

Beginning today, CME Globex users will be able to quickly and conveniently obtain the following information from CME TeleSTAT after entering a unique and secure user identification and personal identification number:

  • Total Cleared Trades by Trade Date
  • Last 20 Executions
  • Total Cleared Trades with Last 20 Executions
  • Cleared Trade Reports that can be emailed to the registered email address

CME TeleSTAT will be available during regular CME Globex trading hours, Sunday through Friday. Developed internally by CME, TeleSTAT will be implemented in phases, with CME Globex firm administrators the first to be granted access. They will be followed by all registered CME Globex customers and then by non-registered customers. Eventually, customers will be able to use TeleSTAT to obtain order status and cancel orders. More information is available at http://www.cme.com/telestat.
