When do you scalp?

    Do you change your target for each market? Do you target 2 ticks for both ES and YM?

    Do you think the tick size change for NQ next week will make it more attractive to scalpers, or less attractive?

    Thanks for the posts VST!

    I started out trading the ES....but now I also trade the ER. Trading more on the EMD also. Once in awhile I will trade the YM....but not the NQ.

    I don't think it will make much difference on the NQ. It is still $20 per point....but now 4 ticks at $5 each....instead of 2 ticks at $10 each.

    I think all the other e-miini's are better than the NQ. If you look at it on a Dollar basis....the average movement each day....then the ER and YM look best to me. ES is still okay.
