Corn vs. Soybeans trading
- Thread starter Robertwiz
- Start date
We day trade soybeans and even beyond day session, Corn doesn't test out well enough for what I require. But I do good deal of trading longer term in Corn using about the same risk as a day trade. Now systems of 60 minute or longer on Corn is different story as those trades are more for swinging of 2-4 days or even into a long term trade if market moves enough.
I agree, between the 2 markets, I will choose Soybeans every time. Provides more fluid moves for my trading style, but to each their own - track both (and wheat while at it) and see what you like.
Compare intraday moves of ZS vs ES and you may be surprised. Same tick value so very easy comparison.
As for sending orders, you can use the same dom you use for the ES as the ZS.
I understand that beans move and that order are executed the same way. My question relates to the fact that it is still a pit traded product and the common wisdom at one time was that "paper" was a bit mangled in execution at the BOT.
I just wondered if that perception continued on electronic orders. Thanks for replying.
