YM, TF, DX Correlation?
Hi,
anyone noticed any correlation between the DX and the YM \ TF contracts, something like the CL and the DX ...
I find the CL too "brutal" for me with the sudden long moves, and considering both contracts as an alternative.

Thank you.
Tomer.

If you are going to trade the ES, YM, or TF, then definitely learn to watch the NYSE TICK for BUY and SELL program activity. Just watch how those three futures instruments react to the BUY and SELL programs running during the US cash session hours.

It's all about the dollar(and the Euro, well just currencies and economies)! Take a look at the relationship between say Euro (6E for futures) and ES/YM/NQ/TF etc. Just inverse to DX.
