The StoneX metals team offers 24-hour LME market making and trade execution across all metals products, as well as access to CME, ICE and futures exchanges worldwide. We operate offices in London, New York, Chicago, Australia and Hong Kong -- allowing for seamless transition of our services. Our position as a Category 1, ring-dealing member of the LME* and as members of NYMEX/COMEX and CME, allows us access to a deep pool of liquidity.
