Data entry operators key the data into theexchange central computer system for theExchanges internal records. The card is then
scanned into the computer system, creatingan unalterable image as part of the archive.
Both buyers and sellers on the NYMEXdivision also fill out trading cards which are
submitted to the Exchange at the end of theday for dual audit trail that exists at anyexchange.

Identity of customers unknown
While each trader can see who the other floortrader is, customers remain anonymous. Infact, a customer who is seeking to take or
liquidate a large position may act throughseveral brokers so he does not tip hiscompetitors.

Futures Trading Commission(CFTC) areaware of the identity of anyone holding asubstantial position.

Options
Options are traded both on exchanges and in the over-the-counter market.
Two basic types of options. A call option gives the holder the right to buy the underlying asset
by a certain date for a certain price. Aput option gives the holder the right to sell the underlying asset
by a certain date for a certain price. The price in the contract is known as the exercise price or strike
price.
The date in the contract is known as the expiration date or
maturity. American options can be exercised at any time up to the
expiration date. European options can be exercised only on the expiration date.
