Can anyone recommend a range of markets - specifically ETF's and Currency Pairs that have little correlation? I'm currently trading spy, gld, and aud/jpy but i find there is a high degree of correlation between most markets and spy.

I'm looking to keep my leverage small which is why I'm trading the markets i do trade. obviously liquidity is important and markets need to be moving well during the standard eastern time trading session.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

You might also do a search for correlation, I brought up this topic a year or two ago and got some discussion going. Not sure if that thread will help you or not.

I was hoping for mostly anecdotal suggestions or even some link to a chart that shows the correlations among all or certain markets. Basically I just want to pick a few markets that are liquid and have low correlation to US indexes. I think the reality is that I won't find markets that are both very liquid AND don't correlate with US indexes.

Have you look at the Natural Gas [NG] and Corn [ZC]? They are both very liquid.

I've got NG up on the charts now thx mrphr! As for ZC i don't know much about that market. The chart I pulled doesn't allow me to trade it so I must have the parameters set wrong. Still....thanks a lot for the suggestions!
