Best contracts to trade if trading 24/7

I agree RedDuke, the Dax is excellent between 3am to 6 (europe morning) and then from 9 to 12 (following US opening). Though the first part is impossible to trade from the eastern US on a regular basis (or you are really motivated !). Apart from these hours, volatility is reduced especially before 3 and after 12 where it can be almost dangerous because of a lack of response. But it still better than other european futures at this time.

It is is bit difficult but totally doable. I go to bed at 9pm and usually do not trade on Mondays.
 
Quote from brownsfan019:

Obviously no one is able to trade 24/7 on their own (at least not for long), but hypothetically, if you could trade round the clock, what contracts would you trade?

Reason for the question is simply to see what else is out there outside of my little ES, ER2, etc world. Some days, you just don't feel like sleeping, right? And since I don't know what else is out there, thought this would be the best place to ask.

I'm looking for something like:

12am - 8am XYZ Contract(s)
8am - 4pm 123 Contract(s)
4pm - 12 am ABC Contract(s)

I've got the US based contracts down, looking for suggestions outside of those, if any. Maybe the ES is the way to go all the time?
===============
Contracts that can be studied any time of the day but;
Chicago/central time ,
is fine. ES is nice liquid & institutional, but not all the time. Mid afternoon can be too soon,sometimes, to stop.;
lots more out there, as you guessed

If you , Browns Fan ,are still looking for more trading opportunities;
RE contracts may be worth studying,institutional help also, occasional trading.
