2. In a small way..mostly farm commodities

corn, wheat, pork bellies etc..but usually because farmers needed to plan ahead for expenses, and the prices were not all that diffreent year to year..unless there were weird weather issues..

I remember when the hunt brothers did it with silver..a long time ago.. and created some chaos..

but I don't recall the "vegas" mentality until recently
