Our firm thinking of starting coal deskNeed to decide on limits / reserves etcDoes anyone know average daily traded volume (in MT) of API2/API4/Newcastle? What is a typical bid/offer spread size (say out to Cal12)?What is typical quote depth? i.e. would you move the market if you bought 100K MT outright etc?Thanks

Wouldn't these questions be better directed at a broker active in the coal markets?QuoteOriginally posted by: jonOur firm thinking of starting coal deskNeed to decide on limits / reserves etcDoes anyone know average daily traded volume (in MT) of API2/API4/Newcastle?
