| If you are going to start trading the Nasdaq online, it would be my
suggestion to start with the E-mini Nasdaq and get up the learning curve for
online trading before putting more money at risk with the larger contract. |

Als daytrader volg ik vooral de nasdaq futures op 1 minuut ( nq01u op
dit
moment maar veranderd regelmatig). Nu heb ik ondervonden dat dit een
vrij
goede en SNELLE richtlijn geeft naar waartoe we gaan. (up of down) Maar
ik
moet eerlijk toegeven dat ik eigenlijk niet goed weet wat die fut nu
eigenlijk juist voorstellen en hoe het komt dat die de koers blijkbaar
net
iets vooraf gaan ??
Weet iemand hier het fijne van ??

| Another suggestion is to use the pit traded Nasdaq and E-Mini Nasdaq
together. Either use the E-mini to scale in or out of a position and use
the pit traded contract opposite. You need to be careful and keep
everything straight (which takes an effort), but this helps use the
illiquidity and volatility to your advantage. Five E-mini contracts can be
offset in the back office versus one big contract, so you dont have to
worry about unwinding positions. |
| Before the market opens I notice there are DOW and Nasdaq futures listed on
Bloomberg TV. Usually if the futures say +150 on the DOW and +50 on Nasdaq,
both indexes will be up close to that amount shortly after the market open.
How are these futures calculated and what do they mean? |

There is one CUBS2 terminal in the Nasdaq pit that is accessible to any
electronic/online broker that connects to TOPS or the FIX API. By contrast,
the S&P 500 pit now has 5 CUBS2 terminals installed, though 2 are currently
inactive. |
