Understanding the market participants of the FDAX

Discussion in 'Index Futures' started by frostydc4, Aug 25, 2014.

  1. I have been watching the FDAX for the past 2 weeks and I have a few questions for the more experienced traders in this instrument. Who are the major players in this (institutional & commercial players & hedgers, large scalpers, large algos etc).? I'm asking because the pending orders are really thin at times & looking at the footprint I want to get an idea of what I am competing against so I can modify my method (mostly entries). TIA for your input.
