Our reporters and analysts carefully consider all information received during their reporting.</p> <p>Argus will also receive market data from electronic trading platforms, the Argus Open Markets® platform (AOM®) and directly from the back offices of market participants. Argus will accept market data by telephone, instant messenger, email, AOM or other means.</p> <p>Argus reporting mirrors the process used by physical commodity traders to internally assess value prior to entering the market with a bid or offer.
