Real Time Feed for Iron Ore Spot Price

Smack · 8 September 2012

Hello people.

I am in need of having real time (or close to it) feed for US iron ore spot price 24/7.

Can anyone assist me for links?

I have scoured the web for many days and cannot find anything.

There are many providers who provide historical iron ore spot price (like 10-12 hours old), but this is too old for me.

Ideally, a chart with current spot price information would be needed.

Thoughts?

Smack!

Its not a open market with continually traded prices like gold, oil or even copper. If you are looking at it during aus hours the 10 hour old data is the latest.

Can you give me an idea as to why you would need it?

He/she read your post over on the FGE thread, and thought I'll do something good for the country.

Yeah... :

I think I know where he's going with that. But its going to be useless. Like looking at the Gold futs and buying NCM every time gold ticks up.

Chop chop!!

Thanks guys.

Why isnt iron ore spot price an open market?

Receiving data 10 hours later is too late for us.

We all know iron ore spot price went up yesterday and that was evident in all iron ore related stocks. It became very obvious the market makers knew this information (increase in spot price) before us retail investors knew about it. Just check out FMG at around yesterday, etc...

I want to know (just like the market makers) when the spot price changes at the time of change - not 10 hours later.

Knowing this information will help me day trade the iron ore stocks much better.

PS - The FGE thread had nothing to do with this new thread. I never even read it or know it existed.

Smack who are market makers?

No it won't mate.

Smack · 8 September 2012

I term the market makers as the insto's (and all other non-retail investors)...

Is there at least a chart of iron ore spot price available ( I cannot even obtain this)?

If the last trade was 10 hours ago, can you tell me what source of information (link) you know this?

Any thoughts on where to obtain latest iron ore spot price on graphs would be much appreciated (even if it is old data).

But mate you are wasting your time. Its like I said above its as much use as trading Gold stocks every time the gold futs up tick.

oh, my bad......youre looking for cause and effect pricing.......nah-ah......consider all the surrounding pricing too + forward contracts......it's not as a simple as + a buck ore + 10C in the stock, the time frame is too far out of whack and how would you know what the lag is?

Smack · 8 September 2012

Thanks for the links guys.

Can someone also explain to me :

Where in the world is iron ore spot price determined and then communicated out to the world markets?
At what time (GMT) is this price communicated each day?
What channel is this spot price communicated?
Who owns iron ore spot price?
How is iron ore spot price calculated?

You didn't look at that first link did you smack?

I'm done.

Smack · 8 September 2012

Unfortunately, the graphs shown on these links do not show current prices. They stop at July or August.

I need graphs to indicate current prices for the last year or 6 months to yesterday. Is this possible?

Smack · 8 September 2012

Can anyone else provide me with graphs of iron ore spot price that is current of yesterday?

Smack are you for real? I've provided you with the actual exchange contract out of Singapore.

What more would you like? Really?

:1zhelp::1zhelp:

Smack · 8 September 2012

The data does not go to yesterday.

I need a graph for YTD data.

They are THE data providers and the exchange where the contract is traded. Sign up for it via esignals etc and you can have Live data. Then trade off it.

You do not get live futs data for free.

Smack · 8 September 2012

Thanks mate.

DO you know if they provide YTD data?
