6E is awesome

Someone please refresh my memory...What is a tick worth
on the Globex 6E?

 

each tic is $12.50

 

I like how trendy the 6e has been lately on the 1 hour .

 

Good to see more of you seeing the light. Most days, the ranges in the equity indices would put me to sleep (though today is a notable exception). There's hardly ever a quiet day in FX.

 

ya'll need to try the TF (miniRussell 2000)...perhaps the best bang for your buck when considering:

*per point value
*daytrading margin

 

find a half way decent forex broker and use the volume in the 6e to confirm entry and exits in the swap.
100/1 can make you some REAL pip pops.
same can be said for dx/ cl trades.
be patient and the setups will come 1-3 times a day.
the f-you reversal this afternoon was "free money" for a short trade in crude.

 

If those of you who haven't had success in the ES think you're ready for the 6E, get ready to join 2 million other currency traders.

Trust me - it's the same game.

 

No doubt, if you can't trade you can't trade. Wont argue
with you there.

 

What is the difference between 6E and EC? A futures website I was looking at claimed to love the EC, but I recall having difficulty finding that particular contract on IB, so I just used the 6E on Globex. Are they two shades of the same animal?
Thx.

 

6E=CME Globex Euro Future
EC=CME pit traded Euro Future

...both are the same...
