what is the difference between market depth and level 2 quotes

Hi all

i admit i am a newbie in trading and i have been reading a lot of threads around DOM, market depth etc as i would like to get a more understanding of the topic.

one thing i am not sure is the term of market depth (or DOM) and level 2 quotes, do they mean the same thing in terms of index futures such as ES or YM?

i saw nasdaq have level 2 quotes and NYSE have openbook, do they mean the same thing as market depth or different in stocks?




thanks in advance
 
thanks for the link

so can i say that there is no level 2 quotes on index futures like the e-minis? just a DOM?

Correct
 
I remember in 1969 overhearing a guy in the Jets camp asking about blocking schemes as finessed by the San Diego Chargers.

Weeb Eubank glowered at him and said:

"Fuhgetaboutit. Let's see how fast you can do the 40!"

My advice is begin with the basics: First get mentally prepared for the daunting task ahead---learning to be a professional trader.
