Hi Guys!

Please suggest futures instruments with large movements similar to Nasdaq NQ.
For Asian, Europe, other markets.

DAX, CL and GC and all theres minis absolutely not comparable to Nasdaq by movement of pips.

I will look into HSI. Thanks.

Aside from the ones already mentioned, CME Nikkei NKD or Osaka Nikkei, Euro Stoxx 50 FESX on the Eurex.

Average Volume of CME Nikkei NKD is about 3000 contracts, apparently lack of liquidity.

Osaka Nikkei and FESX are similar, their daily atr seldom more than 100 ticks, they usually only have 50 ticks a day.

So Osaka Nikkei and FESX are not the instruments with large movements similar to Nasdaq NQ.

Exactly!
It seems nothing comparable to NQ by movement.

I've been told that HSI and most other Asian index futures contracts are beautiful to trade and even better than US indices because of cleaner trends. Allegedly, of course. Didn't look into themself. Would have if my time zone was suitable for it.
