Ive noticed that during the past year there seems to be an increasing interest in trading the YM. That could be partially because of the low performance bond required by most brokers.
As well, there seems to be more people with no or little experience and little capital and uninformed expectations of making money wanting to "trade".

Hey all,
WOW!...look at this...the least risky emini to trade is the...)drum roll please :eek: )...the NQ emini Nasdaq...let me explain...I am basing this off the ATR average true range per day and potential loss of 1 contract traded per day...
Okay here we go:

MOST RISKY: ER2...ATR is 10.67 and (greatest)loss would be $1,067

VERY RISKY: ES...ATR is 11.63 and (greatest) loss would be $581.50

RISKY: YM...ATR is 98 and (greatest) loss would be $490.00

LEAST RISKY: NQ...ATR is 21.39 and (greatest) loss would be $427.80

...we'll very interesting...what do you think?....very surprising...yes, very surprising...I would really take this to heart as you are beginning to trade emini's...of course this is my opinion...what do all of you think???

Hey Increase ... Yeah, sure seems to me ER2 is usually the most volatile and NQ the least volatile on typical day. Ive gotten my a$$ handed to me couple of times in the ER2 - real quick.:(
