Futures Data to Evaluate Risk, Test Strategies,
and Perform Research
IvyDB Futures covers 100+ of the most liquid optionable futures from CME, ICE, and Eurex global exchanges in eight sectors, including agriculture, energy, equity, interest rates, crypto, and more. The earliest historical data begins in January 2005. The data includes both daily option pricing information (symbol, date, settlement price, volume, and open interest) and settlement prices for the underlying futures.
A permanent ID is associated with each instrument to allow it to be easily tracked over time. We also include a record of option name, underlying futures name, option strike multiplier and exchange to allow you to search with ease for options on securities that either no longer trade or trade under a new symbol.
IvyDB Futures is updated daily to incorporate new settlement prices for the futures and their options that we cover. A daily patch file is also provided which contains corrections to previous prices when needed. Your IvyDB Futures database is always current and ready to use.

Should you have any questions, our support team is available during working hours (Eastern Time) Monday through Friday; for urgent issues, assistance is available 24x7.
