European coal contracts are defined through the combination of product, delivery period, and delivery location, and are expressed in metric tonnes (MT).

Delivery Location
The coal contracts are swaps, although they are displayed like forwards, i.e. prices and trades refer to a future physical delivery of the asset. All of GFI’s european energy prices and trades in the data feed are electronically generated by traders or by GFI brokers on behalf of traders. Out of the total number of available contracts, we can expect about 25-40%, on average, to have prices at any point in time during trading hours.
GFI generates a CSV file that is available each night on its FTP site for customers to download. GFI also offers a 5-min delayed feed from its multi-vendor contribution platform, via a Radianz connection directly to the customer.
