ELX Market Share Soars In Two-Year U.S. Treasury Futures Contract

Date 03/11/2010

ELX Futures, L.P. (ELX) announced today that it has set a new market share record in its two-year U.S. Treasury Futures contract, with market share soaring to 13.4% on Tuesday, November 2, 2010.

This milestone follows new records in open interest (OI) and volume for ELX's Eurodollar Futures contract, which exceeded 100,000 contracts in October, with OI more than doubling every month since its launch in June 2010.

Neal Wolkoff, Chief Executive Officer of ELX Futures, said, "ELX has seen a surge in momentum in our futures products, achieving several new milestones in recent weeks. The surge in volume in our two-year Treasury note and new records in our Eurodollar Futures contract is a testament to the great interest by market participants for an alternative futures marketplace."
