MIAX Equity Index Futures Now Available on NinjaTrader Platform

Miami International Holdings (MIAX), a technology-driven financial markets operator, has made its Tini Bloomberg 500 (B500) and Tini Bloomberg 100 (B100) index futures contracts available to eligible customers of NinjaTrader Group. NinjaTrader serves approximately 4.5 million users in retail futures trading.

The futures contracts are designed for retail traders, offering an alternative method to gain exposure to U.S. equity markets. Key features include smaller notional sizes, no exchange fees for retail traders, and free market data. The B500 futures trade under the ticker TBX, and the B100 futures under TBQ on the NinjaTrader platform.

Thomas P. Gallagher, MIAX Chairman and CEO, stated that the collaboration with NinjaTrader aims to serve the rapidly growing retail investor segment in U.S. futures. He highlighted that the combination of product design and absence of exchange fees provides a compelling new way for retail investors to manage exposure to large-cap U.S. companies.

MIAX Futures launched its Bloomberg equity index products earlier this year on its proprietary MIAX Futures Onyx trading platform. These futures clear through The Options Clearing Corporation (OCC), providing transparent benchmarks for the large-cap U.S. market segment. MIAX also plans to introduce cash-settled options on both the B500 and B100 Indexes in the future.
