What do you mean, notouch? Same as any other pit-traded contract.

[notouch]

I've never traded a pit-traded contract so I wouldn't know. I assume it's very different from an electronic contract.

One of my brokers has the ability to place a pit order directly off the DOM (depth of market). The order is transmitted electronically to a trader in the pit on their handhelds, where it is worked and matched.

Best use I've found for having this capability is when the e-CBOT platform is down, and you need to exit your positions. If there is a pit contract that trades side-by-side with the electronic (as with the full-sized grains) you can send a pit order to exit it.
