Explore the power and precision of trading a smaller oil contract
On July 12, 2021*, Micro WTI Crude Oil futures will give traders of all sizes a smaller, more precise instrument for managing crude oil price exposure. At 1/10 the size of the benchmark WTI futures contract, Micro WTI Crude Oil futures offers the same robust transparency and price discovery of larger WTI futures with smaller margin requirements.

While I suspect liquidity will be fantastic long term, consider giving it a few days/weeks for the liquidity to build. Also, I expect the noobs who have never traded crude to be out in full force, so I wouldn't expect a particularly clean trade, especially the first day or two. Maybe will be different, but if I were a MM and signed up to provide liquidity for this, I'd certainly take that into account, so on the retail side, I wouldn't expect it to be an easy trade at first. Just a hunch but we'll see.
