No evidence of any notability. Most of the refs are from a single Wiki which is not reliable and only one other source. Contentious text sourced to its own web-site has been removed. Previously speedily deleted on 8th September Velella ^{Velella Talk} 19:26, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I have added a couple of references but it is debatable whether this topic should be more than a redirect to Chicago_Mercantile_Exchange#Electronic_trading which provides a succinct summary of the development of this platform. AllyD (talk) 08:07, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Obviously notable. While CME essentially has become Globex, this took a long time - and for two+ decades Globex ran concurrent to the pits with different contract sizes. In any event - this is the system on which most of the future contracts, worldwide by volume, are traded. Even a cursory google books search for "Globex", shows notability.

Keep - Globex was set up in 1992 by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and provides an electronic trading platform for futures and option contracts. I think there is no doubt that it meets our notability criteria. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:33, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Chicago Mercantile Exchange#Electronic trading, lots of passing mention, where is the substantive coverage. Important yes, but that doesn't make for notability. Stick with section in the CME article. --Bejnar (talk) 03:35, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
