A brief, fun history on commodites
Sumer is thought to be the world’s oldest civilization that traded commodities somewhere between 4500 and 4000 BC

The Amsterdam Stock Exchange in 1530 is often called the world’s first stock exchange. However, before it was a stock exchange, it operated as a market for the exchange (we know this from Tulip Mania)

BUT earliest RECOGNIZED futures trading exchange is Dojima Rice Exchange, established in 1710 in Japan for the purpose of trading rice future. (You traders may recognize the doji name..candlestick patterns came from here)

Fun thread: commodities trading dates back to the Samaritans.. somewhere between 4500 and 4000 BCE

Modern futures markets started in England in the 16th century (huge gap in time)

Then in 1848 the modern day futures market that you know now..started in Chicago
