I keep seeing people ask about "correlations". What do you hope to gain from this? There are many markets that are correlated with each other - a huge number, in fact. This adds nothing to your...

You only need to look at the mini. It has the highest institutional liquidity.

If you are worried about slippage, then do not trade during high impact news. For a discretionary trader, it is extremely difficult to gauge volume during these events. During normal market...

This is true of any market, not exclusively the Nikkei. High impact news reports are avoided by most traders. The USD/JPY pair action is not a primary cause of movement on the Nikkei. There is...

You should get a demo of Sierra and CQG and check out the depth, because I doubt anyone would take the time to make a video while they are trading. Plus NT is lame anyway. :)

Any highly liquid market is going to be very "technical". Institutions dominate these markets, so you can expect similar action.

It has plenty of movement for day trading. Believe me - I primarily trade this instrument, and it behaves similarly to the ES. Some days may be dull, but that is the same with the ES or other index...

Extremely expensive commissions from AMP. Pretty much stealing out of your pocket. Interactive Brokers is far, far cheaper. What I would do is use AMP CQG for data and place trades through IB.

I'm currently trying to figure out a good minimum scalp size for the N225M. I'm thinking either 3 or 4 ticks. A lot of people scalp for one point on the ES, so I'm trying to compare costs.
