Description of CBOT mini-sized Metal Futures

The Gold e-mini is 33% of the large contract (100 oz), with one contract consisting of 33.2 fine troy ounces. The Gold e-mini trades on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT). It ticks in 10 cent increments (or $3.32 per contract) with a whole point move representing $33.20. The initial margin requirement (per contract) is $432, while the maintenance requirement is $320. The initial maintenance requirement roughly represents the price of one troy ounce of gold, giving the trader high leverage (about 33 to 1).

The Silver e-mini represents 20% of the large contract (5,000 oz), with one contract consisting of 1,000 troy ounces. The Silver e-mini trades on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT). The tick size is one tenth of a cent ($0.001), with each tick move representing a $1 change per contract. The initial margin requirement (per contract) is $432, and the maintenance requirement is $320. The initial maintenance requirements roughly represent the price of 60 troy ounces of silver. While this is not as highly leveraged as the gold mini, it is still substantial at approximately 16 to 1.

An investment in futures contracts is speculative, involves a high degree of risk and is suitable only for persons who can assume the risk of loss in excess of their margin deposits. The high degree of leverage that is often obtainable in futures trading can work against you as well as for you and, as a result, can lead to large losses as well as gains. If you purchase or sell a futures contract, you may sustain a total loss of your initial margin funds and any additional funds that you may deposit to establish or maintain your position. If the market moves against your position, you may be called upon to deposit a substantial amount of additional margin funds, on short notice, in order to maintain your position. If you do not provide the requested funds within the prescribed time, your position may be liquidated at a loss, and you will be liable for any resulting deficit in your account. Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position. You should carefully consider whether futures trading is appropriate for you in light of your investment experience and objectives, financial resources and other relevant circumstances.
