Now that the Russell has moved...

Have you looked at the EMD mini-MidCap400 contract then?

Mr Paul - had another idea today - take a look at the Euro FX. It's on the CME and at 12.50/tick, it could be what you are looking for. Commissions are a tad higher but could be a nice replacement to the ER2.

Why not trade IWM? It moves tick by tick along with the e-mini russell. A little bit more commision but you can keep your routine.

I would say that going from a futures contract to an ETF is a big difference, even though the movements may be similar. I don't think it's as easy going from the fast paced world of futures (and the leverage) to an ETF.

what is wrong with YM? it has nice range and spikes to fill orders and run stops -- just like RUS does/did... this can sometimes be tricky but when in sync -- it is awesome contract because it trades like a hybrid --- trades a lot like RUS but correlates with ES nicely -- I like that combination. RUS would often be out in Right Field doing its own thing and show absolutely no correlation with anything.... for this reason, it was high maintenance to track that thing... you can watch the S&P's and have a choice with trading either ES or YM....

You want to see something VERY INTERESTING (and useful) .....watch the NYSE TICK together with the ER2....very cool!


Who would have thought....lol
