Where can I find data on block trades?
Answer
Search Bloomberg, available on select computers in the Business Library.
- Type BTR and then hit <GO> to get Block Trade Recap.
- BTR lists trades of 10,000 to 1,000,000 shares on the secondary market.
- Search by exchange and by date going back 11 days.
Use CME Group's Block Trade Browser to search block trades on their exchanges (CBT, CME, COMEX, DUMX, NYMEX).
