Yes — Helios covers multiple types of market pricing, with a current focus on futures and cash markets.
Futures Prices: We track and forecast exchange-traded agricultural futures contracts, giving you a forward-looking view of market expectations. This helps with hedging strategies, timing decisions, and understanding how climate risk might influence future prices.
Cash Market Prices: We also include physical (cash) market pricing from key origins and wholesale markets. These reflect the actual transaction prices for commodities in the physical market, adjusted for quality, location, and delivery terms (FOB, DDP, EXW, etc.).
Spot Market Prices: While spot pricing is not yet a primary focus, our roadmap includes expanding into spot coverage so you can track real-time, immediate-delivery prices alongside our futures and cash data.
Bottom line:
You get actionable pricing intelligence for both forward-looking markets (futures) and physical transaction markets (cash), with spot coverage on the horizon.
