mini futures EUR/USD

hello folks,

the standard futures contract that trades on Globex has a multiplier of 125,000 euro and trades virtually 24 hours a day.

does a mini contract exists that also trades 24 hours/day for EUR/USD?
and what is the multiplier of that one?

thanks

looks like $1553.00 on IB
spread is 2 pips
i don't know about this one, but some of the minis do not follow along with the full contract very well, causing gaps.

This thread has been inactive for quite some time. The CME has a few micro futures contracts now that have enough volume to trade. If its ok I'll post some of my thoughts on the Euro on this thread.

Not all of the mini's have a lot of volume, let alone the micro's. If you are trading higher time frames the micros might look ok, but on lower tf's there seems to be a lot of gaps

The pound,aussie,and euro micro have enough volume. You can chart the larger contract and trade the micro. Its best to put them on a quote sheet and see for your self. You can see the spreads etc.
