WTI Bullet Futures
WTI Bullet Futures
The ICE West Texas Intermediate (WTI) Light Sweet Crude Oil contract is a monthly cash settled future based on the daily settlement price for WTI Futures. It brings one of the world’s most liquid oil commodities together with other significant crude benchmarks on a single exchange (ICE Futures Europe): Brent, (Platts) Dubai, and WTI, as well as the emerging benchmarks Murban and Midland WTI AGC.
Brent Crude Futures
Brent Crude Futures
The ICE Brent Crude futures contract is a deliverable contract based on EFP delivery with an option to cash settle. Brent is considered the global benchmark for navigating crude oil markets, and up to two thirds of the world’s oil is priced relative to the ICE Brent complex on ICE Futures Europe. As a waterborne crude, it’s easily transported around the world with access to global shipping, ports, and storage capacity.
Henry Hub Natural Gas Futures
Henry Hub Natural Gas Futures
The CME Henry Hub Natural Gas futures contract is a deliverable contract based on physical delivery with an option to cash settle. It’s based on the price of natural gas delivered at the Henry Hub in Louisiana, which is the benchmark for U.S. natural gas pricing and widely used as a national standard.
Dutch TTF Natural Gas Futures
Dutch TTF Natural Gas Futures
The Dutch TTF Natural Gas futures contract is a deliverable contract based on physical delivery of natural gas with an option to cash settle. This is facilitated through the transfer of rights at the Title Transfer Facility (TTF) Virtual Trading Point, operated by Gasunie Transport Services (GTS). As a benchmark hub for natural gas in Europe, the TTF plays a pivotal role in setting gas prices.

Frequently asked questions
Why are there similar products on CME and ICE?
Both of these exchanges offer similar or overlapping products in key commodity markets. They may provide contracts for the same commodity, such as power, but with different specifications, contract sizes, underlying, or delivery instructions. This allows traders to choose the contract that best fits their trading strategy or hedging needs. Additionally, having multiple listings on different exchanges can enhance liquidity.
What are futures prices vs. spot prices?
Both CME (Chicago Mercantile Exchange) and ICE (Intercontinental Exchange) primarily focus on futures and options contracts rather than spot prices. Futures prices represent the agreed-upon price for a commodity to be delivered at a future date, reflecting market expectations about future supply and demand conditions and anticipated price movements. In contrast, spot prices reflect real-time market prices for the immediate delivery of commodities.
What’s the difference between ICE Endex and ICE Futures Europe?
ICE Endex is known as the leading energy exchange in continental Europe and provides products in European gas, emissions, and regional power (electricity) markets. On the other hand, ICE Futures Europe offers a broader range of energy commodities and covers 50% of crude and refined oil futures trading worldwide. ICE Endex and ICE Futures Europe are part of the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) group, but they cater to different segments. You can find both datasets in our data catalog.
