Remarks

This field contains a semi colon delimited list of details about the market. It may contain no items, 1 item or multiple items. This allows you to determine the differences between multiple markets that have the same ExchangeID, ContractID and ExpiryDate.
Note: You should always check for the semi-colon even if you are only expecting, or only seen a single value in the list before as additional list items can be added at any time without warning.
The details will depend on the type of market:
- ICE Minute Marker futures markets will have a value indicating the type of minute marker this market is including the time period in minutes and type, e.g. '5M' means 5 minute Morning.

- LME Rolling futures markets flag certain markets as being special and these may change each day:
CCash - the currently trading market which expires today.
TOMTomorrow - tommorrows expirying market which will become the Cash market tomorrow.
3MThree month - the market that will become cash in 3 months.

- Options markets will contain the strike price of the market in the format provided by the exchange. Additional list items will be added later that assist with comparing this strike value with the underlying futures prices. You can determine Call or Put from the ContractType property.
