Right. I don't trust the CFD volume data. It looks ridiculous. 2 major reasons why I gave up trading CFDs - I can't plot volume-based charts - horrific bid-offer spread
Well, I did the trade this evening. One thing nice about the CME futures over equities is you can trade after-hours. Just one futures for now, and that will be enough for the rest of the year for me, haha. I also see you can trade options on top of the micro-ether futures now. Now that I think of it, I may just give THOSE a try as well... for educational reasons.
