The $2, to be clear, does still trade. I've been buying contracts here and there in the last couple weeks...I haven't really noticed...
Yes, someone mentioned it earlier on this thread, and the CBOT confirmed it. The $2 is going away once the December contract expires. Highly...
Yeah, the Dowskis are definitely not day-tradeable, IMO. Catch the bigger trend, with wider stops Yes. As liquid and efficient as the S&Ps? No.
I just tried the trade-ideas website - very nice stuff. But I'm disappointed that, from what I can see, I cannot set alerts based on a few...
I had no idea the $2 Dow e-mini even existed until August. But since then, I've used it a number of times profitably. I'll switch to them whenever...
If you don't mind that your data is going to be the cash-indexes, and not futures-based, go to www.prophetfinance.com. You can pull up daily...
Try this link: www.portfolioscience.com. That's the home page. Look on the lower-left margin of the page. You'll see a little icon that says...
Check out : http://www.portfolioscience.com/ps/xl/realtime/features.cfm That's the service I mentioned in the last post.

I've seen a couple ads in the past few years for an Excel application that uses data from Barchart.com. I have never used the service, or any of...
My experience has been much the same. Over dozens of trades, I've gotten positive slippage, and negative slippage. I take on the additional risk...
I agree with you 100%... Its just that for my method, I've found all I really need is to see the livecharts-feed, and then trade off...
I've used livecharts for a couple years now, almost the whole time with a CME feed hooked up. I have no complaints - there are occasional data...
I was referring in my last post to the e-mini-type currency contracts, not the big ones, or the interbank market, which from what I read has much...
I agree with the last post - unless you're going to use some kind of multi-week trend-following method, you're not going to be able to dodge and...
Others on ET can discuss the intricacies of FCM's and commission/fee negotiations better than I. But it sounds to me like your guy just needs or...
Usually I take all my data from the data-logger, and then run it through an algorhythm sequencer. I tell it to look for non-confirmations. Once it...
As far as CNBC goes...I presume they quote the big contract, but I really don't know. If you really want to have fun with...
I can be a little confusing getting used to this stuff. ND is the "big" nasdaq contract... NQ is the mini contract, as you noted. The big...
I really like Prophet for daily action, and after-session analysis of the intraday action, using their javacharts application. But, you might want...
