LME Silver

The LME Silver contract combines daily tradeable dates with monthly and quarterly trading dates. In this way, the system seamlessly blends the daily structure of the London over-the-counter (OTC) market, and the monthly futures approach of existing exchange offerings.

The contract can be traded electronically from 01.00 to 20.00 (London time) via LMEselect, and through the 24-hour inter-office telephone market.

Market participants can access LME Silver prices for free using LMElive.
