NQ Volume - Last 10 Minutes

Discussion in 'Index Futures' started by macattack, Dec 1, 2010.

  1. Every day there is a large volume bar in the last 10 minutes of NQ trading (before the stock markets close) (right before 4:00 ET).

    Where does all that volume come from?
    What happens in the last 10 minutes every day to cause it?
     
  2. Every body try to get out at the same time .........

    Have you ever heard this?

    If you want a see dead people rise be here at quiting time.....:D :D :D :p :p :p

    volume is U shaped for almost every instrument. thats why some guys (floor mostly) only trade the open and close
     
  5. Who are the biggest players in the NQ?

    Who is responsible for making the market move from one level to the next?

    Are the market makers the ones who control the movements, or is some other group in control?
     
  6. in my opinion NQ is a new hot market, decent volume, decent ranges. small tick size. good in every way. fills are better then ES too.
