Guys keep one thing in mind when asking: Why the mini-dow?

What happens if globex goes down (and it does!). You are in an ES/NQ trade and things start to move against you.......

Time to hedge with: The mini-DOW!

The reason I love the mini-DOW is because it makes hedging another index futures position instant and with little slippage.

It's a decent product but not my preferred trading vehicle for the US futures markets, I still prefer ES for all major transactions.

Goodluck,

 

I do.

Ask away.
