My initial interest is the Russell
and NASDAQ

Might have a run at a longer timeframe and a few smaller contracts.
Think they are around $5 US a tick

Anyone think of anything interesting?

who would you use as a broker?
I have thought about mini futures, but for me cfds do the job. Can go as small as 1oz on spot gold, $1 per point on indices 10c(depends on rate) per pip on fx , 10 barrels of oil wti and brent, etc. all through one broker. WTI and brent are intersting at the moment, gold is trending up steadily, AUD may be about to dump below 70c and the indices are taking a dump.
100/1 leverage
DMA Futures and also cash cfds.
