Live, real-time charts
Have you been following the markets for a while now? Not able to make the switch from demo to live trading?
Well now with the
MICROS contracts being 1/10 the size of the mini indices, you can start trading a LIVE account with as little as $750** using the smaller MICROS.
The MICRO e-minis have now been around for approx. 6 months. Good volume overall!
Here are some thoughts ( my personal thoughts….):
· The MICROS are a good tool for perhaps hedging a trade you are in. Example, you are short ES, market going against you but you dont want to get stopped or get out, you buy x number of contracts to hedge x% of your current position.
· MICROS may be a good start for newcomers and smaller accounts.
· MICROS can be a nice transition from trading a demo account and before moving on to the standard size.
· MICROS may provide more flexibility for traders who like to average up and down…..
· Last but not least, the MICROS could be a good way to initiate longer term positions with lower leverage.
