Live CBOT nearby futures are below, updated every time this page loads. Our FOB basis moves with the origin, the shipping window, and the volume, so we quote it directly rather than posting one number that would be wrong for most loads. Tell us what you need and we will send today's basis the same business day.
Retrieving CBOT reference data…
Send us the commodity, the tonnage, and roughly when you need it. We respond the same business day with our current FOB basis for the origins that fit your load, quoted over the CBOT contract month.
Same business day. Usually within hours during market hours.
Quoted against the board. Basis over a stated CBOT month, so you can check our math against the futures above.
Brokerage stated separately. Never buried inside the basis.
No obligation, no account required. A basis quote is information, not a commitment.

Cash price = futures + basis. The futures leg is the CBOT nearby contract shown above, public and verifiable. The basis leg is ours, and it reflects the origin facility, your volume, and the shipping window.
Why we quote basis rather than post it. A single posted number would be wrong for most loads. A 100-ton spot pickup and a 5,000-ton quarterly program out of two different elevators do not carry the same basis, and pretending otherwise wastes your time and ours.
No freight is included. All pricing is FOB origin. You arrange the haul with carriers you already trust, and there is no freight margin hidden in our number.
Futures shown are indicative. Delayed CBOT reference data for orientation only, not a tradable quote. Firm pricing comes from the desk in writing.
A basis request tells you where the market is. A bid request gets you a firm FOB price against a specific origin and shipping window.
