What Futures to trade Overnight @EST? EUR 6E, AUD 6A, Euro Bund, Bobl, Schatz?

Quote from vita:

Thanks Martinghoul. I may have misused the term "trend" here but what it refers to is short term moves/swings beyond choppiness, e.g. different from what we see in midday moves of ES these days. For ZB this short term moves are of the order 7/32 and higher. I'd consider Euro 6E a good candidate to trade, there are several moves of 20pips through out the night (starting 1AM EST).

Are you trading Bund? If so, what is the best econ calendar for it. In the calendar below, I don't see any Auction Dates and Announcement for them similar to US Treasury data. I could use some education leads.

I do trade the bund, but I really don't know a good calendar available for free that has the Ger/Fra/Ita etc auctions. Ultimately, the Finanzagentur, Tresor and others do publish auction calendars, so you can try to compile your own (although quite a few issues are syndicated, so you need to be in the cash bond mkt to know what's going on).

If you want to try something properly choppy and fun, you might also want to look at the LIFFE gilt futures, but that's living on the edge. I don't know enough about Eurostoxx and other equity indices to comment meaningfully.
 
HSI is an insane beast.

GLOBEX futs are pretty thin overnight.

The best stuff to trade around that time I think is Eurex instruments.
