Selenium doesn't find a table

I'm trying to read this website https://www.cmegroup.com/clearing/operations-and-deliveries/accepted-trade-types/block-data.html

In that website, scrolling down there is a table:

enter image description here

I'm trying to read it with Selenium:

        // Load website
        IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
        driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("https://www.cmegroup.com/clearing/operations-and-deliveries/accepted-trade-types/block-data.html");            
        Thread.Sleep(1000);

        // Get table
        IWebElement table = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//*[@id='main-content']/div/div[4]/div/div[2]"));
        //driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector(".block-trades-table-wrapper'"));

        // Loop table elements
        IList<IWebElement> tableRow = table.FindElements(By.TagName("tr"));
        IList<IWebElement> rowTD;
        foreach (IWebElement row in tableRow)
        {
            rowTD = row.FindElements(By.TagName("td"));
        }

        Console.WriteLine("Test!");

After testing, I see that if I input a wrong Xpath I get an error:

Here I'm not getting any error, so the Xpath should be correct. But I'm not getting anything to read.

How can I read that table?

For the first few Iteration, you won't find any record, because, if you see carefully, the first 2 tr does not have any td in it, as they are in thead But when you continue Iterating, and when the code iteration comes within tbody you will start getting text for td

Also, add your code in try - catch block so that if a particular element is not present in any iteration, you can handle the situation as you need it.
