TradeStation just widened its offering of futures products with micro contracts on key agricultural products.

Micros are now available on corn, wheat, soybeans, soybean oil and soybean meal. The micros, recently launched by CME, are one-tenth the size of standard futures contracts. They also settle in cash rather than requiring physical delivery

Like the micros on stock indexes, energy and metals, these products let customers take positions with less capital and manage trade sizes more precisely. They can also offer diversification away from stocks at times of uncertainty in equity markets.

TradeStation offers continuous contracts on these products, allowing customers to track price action across expirations, similar to other futures.

The table below includes key details about the new products. More information is available on our futures margin rates page.
