Hello, I have recently switched from ES to NQ for scalping and have been on a long winning streak with many more trades per day. The stronger volatility of NQ compared to ES gives me many more "zig zag" entries per day and more successful 2:1 profit target:stop loss

With Ninjatrader, I believe I can only trade on CME, CBOT, NYMEX, NYBOT, and Eurex. I am also interested in Asian futures to trade the first 1-2 hours, but don't think Ninjatrader supports it.

Does anyone have any other futures to recommend similar to NQ?

I think that you should look at the FDAX (Eurex) at Volume Charts. You can find a lot of Zig-Zag's, but the contract is one of the thinner ones.
