Coverage is not sold by the row. Every tier reads the same 42 markets, the same depth of history, the same method; the tiers differ in seats and distribution, never in what is measured. The earliest record begins in 1987.

THE CLASS LEDGER

Seven classes, itemised.

What is measured, how far the record runs, and how each class is delivered. Delivery is identical across the ledger: API and terminal, no exceptions.

QUESTIONS ON COVERAGE

Asked by desks, answered plainly.

How are the 42 markets chosen?

A market enters the index when its primary venue publishes a complete, timestamped feed and daily turnover clears a fixed liquidity floor. The list is reviewed once a year; a class is never added mid-methodology.

Can we request a market outside the index?

Yes. Requests are assessed quarterly against data-quality criteria: continuity of the primary feed, verifiable timestamps, depth of usable history. If a market qualifies, it is added for every subscriber at once. Coverage is not sold by the row.

Is the historical depth included, or metered?

Included. Every tier reads back to each class's first record, 1987 for commodities, and there is no separate history product.

How the numbers are made.

Coverage tells you what the instrument reads. The methodology tells you why the reading holds: the pipeline, the versioned registry, and the audit record behind it.
