    $1000/point vs $500/point. CL also has tighter markets and more volume.

  3. What about Bund futures ? I would say there is still lots of fun there almost every day. Or CL. Or GC. Or FX (spot or futures). Enough stuff around that still moves somewhat.

    Not going there. Oil, Euro FX futures, and the 30 year look pretty appealing.

    ES is a dead turkey now.

    ES, Nikkei even ZN don't like to move.

    There are tons of futures that move virtually everyday.
    you can see my Journal and look for futures that have wide range.

    Try throttling your YM chart down a bit and increase leverage...daytrading returns can be rewarding...

    Calm before the storm
    Happened about 10 years ago as well but the volatility always comes back in the end
