You can only trade products that are permitted by TradeDay.
TradeDay only allows its traders to trade the CME Group futures products, specifically those listed on the CME, CBOT, COMEX, and NYMEX.
At TradeDay we do our best to offer a broad selection of these CME Group products. However, we do not trade high-margin products or very illiquid products which are difficult to trade and risk manage.
Below are the permitted products, grouped by asset class. You can click on the product to access the CME Groups contract specification.
We have also included which data feed the products are available on if you would like to select level 2 data when signing up for an evaluation.
− From February 11th, 2026, temporary metals have been put in place.
− Restricted products (on all account types):
− - Gold (GC)
− - Silver (SI)
− - Copper (HG)
− - Platinum (PL)
− Position limit adjustments (on all account types):
− For all account tiers (50k, 100k, and 150k), the max position limit in the following contracts will be 4 lots
− - Micro Gold (MGC)
− - Micro Silver (SIL)
− These changes apply to both Sim (evaluation and funded sim) and live accounts until further notice.
+ Metal position limit adjustments (on all account types):
+ 25K account tier: 2 contracts
+ 50K account tier: 5 contracts
+ 100K account tier: 10 contracts
+ 150K account tier: 15 contracts
+ Please note that SIL - Micro Silver follows the mini/standard contract count because of a technical limitation.
