Commodities List:

Futures contract symbols are split into three parts:

  1. The commodity code
  2. The month code
  3. The year code (one digit)

Month codes: {F G H J K M N Q U V X Z} - Jan ... Dec
Year codes: 2002 - 2, 2003 - 3, 2004 - 4, 2005 - 5, 2006 - 6

Cash Prices (when available) can be obtained by prefixing Y0 (zero) to the commodity code.

For example:

  • USM3 - US(T-Bond)  M(June)  3(2003)
  • CZ4 - C(Corn)  Z(December)  4(2004)
  • ECY0 - EC(Euro FX)  Y(Cash)  0(Cash)
