    Eurostoxx 50 dayVolume ~ 1-2M
    GBL the same
    DAX about 200.000
     
  6. Volume in FDAX is nly 220,000 today. Am I looking at the wrong market?


    This looks a much bigger volumed market?

    Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50® Index Futures (FESX)

    nearly 2 million contracts?
     
  7. No you are right. The Dax doesnt have the volume that the STOXX does. That, and along with a little less volatility,is why I think the STOXX is more like the ES and DAX more like the ER2.
