ER2 is actually more liquid than YM. It's kind of like YM on cocaine really. It give you the most potential for gains, but for losses as well, and you have to be willing to deal with the volatility. Slippage is not bad at all. I usually got filled at my stop price. YM is easier on my nerves. But if you have the discipline and nerve to trade ER2 then it does tend to give bigger percentage moves.
Really? Thanks for this information. I'm going to look into this ER2. One of the reasons I don't trade YM as much anymore, is, for the most of the time, I find it a slow market, and I'm not willing to watch it everyday to wait for it to really explode.
