Also, they may call the S&P CME SP Pit Traded contract, 'the big contract' or 'the S&P'. The broadcasters are calling the trades within a few feet of the S&P CME SP trading pit and are referring to the S&P CME SP contract.You are hearing the broadcasters quote the current bid and offer of the S&P CME SP pit traded contract - quickly. When they say '0 even bid at one half', that could mean 1280.00 is the bid and 1280.50 is the offer. But could also mean, 1290.00 is the bid and 1290.50 is the offer. They are broadcasting tick for tick and must quote the figures to stay with the pit action. When the pit is packed and active they may just say, '0 at half' or '20 bid at 70'. It is easy to follow along when looking at the ES chart and trades.The pit traders are trading the SP and may trade the ES also. When they do, the broadcasters may say 'they're trading the mini' or 'they just sold/bought the mini'.The prices you SEE in the video are the S&P e-mini (electronic symbol ES) Globex Sep 2008 contract.
