  1. What is the best futures market to trade in your opinion? CL, ES, GC, EUR, etc. Do you look for volatility, volume, liquidity etc.?

    NQ, tech is the future, here and now. When it is in favor it really moves, same as when they are out of favor.

    good vol, good pricing, easy to scale in and out.

    It depends on what you're looking for too. ES is very liquid and because it reflects general sentiment about the US economy there are 100s of sources to read to form an opinion about movement. Sources are plentiful about CL too but it moves much quicker and sometimes jumps so if you're hungry for more risk/reward I'd say CL.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder though. Only sitting in front of screens working your method can tell you what's best for you.
