E-micro minis on Tradestation

Opened an account with Tradestation this week. They are offering .50 commission on the micro minis. Pretty competitive I thought considering that includes no platform fee and free market data.

I think you are right. This new exchange seems to have lots of notable backers. Website is pretty vague on the details though. Found some additional info on CQG.

Hmmm...we may have NADEX to thank for this rather sudden new CME micro product launch. In January, NADEX added weekly expiring "touch bracket" products for the stock indexes. These were designed to...

Yes. The closest thing we have to CFDs in the USA are those NADEX "bull spread contracts". Anyway, I had been experimenting with offshore CFD brokers with some success prior to "discovering" the...

Wisdom Trading never got back to me. I'll take that to mean their monthly data fees are even worse than AMP. Oh well, back to Nikkei CFDs. I tried to be street legal, but not for $29/mo.

Yes, I'm sure CQG is very good. But I was just using a simple trend following strategy with 1-5m candles. The IB data was good enough for me.

I don't have much personal experience trading CFDs since US brokers are banned from offering them (though I have traded them occasionally through offshore brokers that will take US residents).

Yeah, like these other guys said. I doubt we're ever going to see an e-micro S&P. Of course, Osaka Nikkei Mini proves small sized stock index futures can be wildly popular. Maybe that's the...

How about SGX?

They offer the Nifty and China A50. Both contracts have notional values under $20K. Volume on A50 is good (430K yesterday). Volume on Nifty is decent for a casual day trade I...

Fair enough, but whether to trade CFDs should be our decision to make, not some nannycrat at the CFTC or SEC. Same goes for the FIFO rule.

Anyway, I can't complain about the spreads I get...
