Re: Rollover Reminder
Now I gotta go look up what new letter to use. Why can't they just make it continuous? It's not like anyone is going to take delivery of a bunch of ES contracts. I guess I don't have enough money to see the benefit of the current system lol

p.s - Ed, when I first saw your avatar I though it was a bunch of colored pills. I was slightly confused as I never took you as a drug guy

Re: Rollover Reminder
I noticed that the volume this morning is higher in the old contract, are you guys trading the june contract today or waiting until tomorrow? I'm still new to trading futures as you can see. Thanks.

Re: Rollover Reminder
Just go with the contract with more liquidity. You will notice the drastic difference in liquidity.. this is your signal to switch contracts.
