2 · Where the exchanges disagree

The widest gap this week: 1.6 points on the same question.

The same question, listed on two exchanges, at two prices. 1 pair printed from 2 cross-venue markets; a pair prints only when the gap on the mid is wide enough to be disagreement, not book depth.

3 · Settling this week · OCT 27 – NOV 3

19 contracts a tracked index owns settle in the next seven days.

Contracts converge to 0 or 100 as they settle, so a big move here is the calendar, not the book changing its mind. These are not picks and they are not ranked.
