I have made a couple of observations lurking around this forum.
-Most trade e-minis not stocks
-Most trade one e-mini and not the others.

What are the pros and cons of trading the YM vs ES vs ER2?
-Is one more profitable?
-Is one easier (more predictable) to trade?
- Or is it just personal preference?

Hey ryounkin,

I would also say that it all comes down to preference.

the YM is a great income producing contract

the ER2 is good for big profits, but you gotta use really good M Management

The NQ is kinda, eh just not my style

the ES is a sideways market most of the time i think, allot of big hitters in that market.

I tend to watch them all during the day though, see what kind of ebb and flow the universe of indexes is having for the day.
