Where these come from. The AGSIST elevator network reads each elevator’s posted bid board directly; no third-party bid feed is used for the bids on this page. A bid shows only if the board was read successfully in the last 6 hours and did not fail on the latest pass, the price was posted in the last 72 hours, and its delivery period has not ended. This page is a snapshot and is rebuilt through the day; the live page has the newest board and nearby elevators. Basis is cash minus the futures contract named under it. A “Hold to” line names the later month this elevator posts that comes out best once storage and interest are taken off: its posted carry (that month’s bid minus the nearest one), net of storage at 3.5¢ a month (default), interest at 7% a year (default), no shrink (default); put in your own costs on Store or sell. The “Basis since” box reads AGSIST’s daily basis log, which keeps the day each elevator’s basis changed; until Oct 11, 2026 that log also drew on a licensed bid feed.
