Hello, I'm currently trading M6E to get some experience of live trading.
It's just about doable,given the commission cost and sometimes wider spread.
Are any of the other micro futures instruments -currency or otherwise-
worth trading ?
I'm just looking for some alternatives when the M6E is slow.
Thanks.

The M6E is going OK. With a small account it's a lot less stressful than 6E,but a bit boring sometimes.
The main advantage is the ability to trade multiple lots , and scale out.
Fills on entries and exits can have some slippage however.
Overall ,if you have patience , I think it's a very good way to get into live trading.
