So, for those of us who've developed systems for trading the Russell,
and learning its characteristics, we're now left out in the cold? One
would think that by acquiring a significant product like the Russell,
the ICE would want to ensure its success by having the necessary
infrastructure.
There's been almost no info out there regarding this, excepting Tim's
insightful opinions on this list. I wonder why retail traders are
being kept in the dark about this.
I've invested years of research and trading to learn the Russell's
personality. Starting over with one of the other 'minis' doesn't make
me very happy, as they don't have the characteristics I require. I'm
disappointed.

Like Rich Dennis, I have no interest in trading a realtively high
volume contract that has anything to do with ICE. Their
infrastructure to support a contract with any volume to speak of is
non-existent.
The CME will list and trade the Sep 2008 russell and then be done.
They COULD have continued to trade and list it but chose not to. The
volume has been going down, the open interest has been going
down...find a new trading vehicle. That's my 2 cents.
