Event Trader
IBKR Event Trader lets investors buy and sell event contracts, which gives investors a new and straightforward way of participating in key futures markets. Event contracts are based on the outcome of an event and are short-term positions good for that trading day only.
Event contracts let you express your view on whether the price of key futures markets will move up or down by the end of each day's trading session. You can select from CME listed event contracts in the Equity Index, Energy, Metals and Foreign currency futures markets.
