  • TRAKRS Overview
    In 2004, CME introduced TRAKRS® (Total Return Asset Contracts®), a line of non-traditional futures offered in collaboration with Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.

    TRAKRS are exchange-traded non-traditional futures contracts designed to provide market exposure to various TRAKRS Indexes, a series of market-based indexes of stocks, bonds, currencies, commodities and other financial instruments. All TRAKRS futures products are cash settled and trade electronically on the CME® Globex® electronic platform from 8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. (Chicago time) each business day, with orders matched continuously on a price-time priority basis (first-in, first-out).

    The indexes on which TRAKRS futures are based differ from most financial indexes in that they are calculated on a total return basis, with declared dividends and other distributions included in the index values. TRAKRS Indexes are offered on stocks, bonds, currencies, commodities and other financial instruments.
