I wish for a 0.1 tick on the ES.

And also ES should trade at $10 dollars a tick.

That would be the best contract out there!

May see my first wish come true one day, second one probably never happen.

It's a real shame that the volume on the big S&P contract has dropped to such dismal levels otherwise that would still be a great contract to trade.

Agree about the 6B. The contract size is just plain wrong though. Needs to be $125,000. $6.25 per tick is ridiculous. Means you have to load up so heavily to get any sort of exposure that even with exchange member's rates you still get raped in comms.

NQ I find worse than YM, significant drop in NQ volume as well. NQ should be at least 40$ apoint IMO. Can they easily change the $/point of these contracts?
