I use E7 as a half of 1 6E, because of the tick size. Now they are esscentially the same. (I am assuming that margin isn't being changed, so E7 would be more beneficial since it is lower margin.)
1 6E = 2 E7 = 5 M6E. I would trade a mix of all to have different position sizing options. I did this scaling in and out over longer timeframes.
I think smaller tick sizes make it more attractive to HFTs as it increases arbitrage opportunities.
What will be interesting is what it does to liquidity. Will we now see half the liquidity at each level or will we actually see more people come in?
It is their market after all and no doubt they are doing it to increase revenues. From a risk perspective, there is no difference for us guys between trading the 2 markets - UNLESS liquidity overall reduces and then risk goes up.
