Soybean futures

    Some of you guys that are getting chopped up on   /es futures.. might want to shift to soybeans.       The ticks are worth  12.50 each same a /es    but soybeans are getting around   40 handles a day move.   If you have good indicators..   this should be a slam dunk for some of you.          Today is a  light day...  but later in the week should be interesting.

    What is the symbol?

    If you can't figure it

    If you can't figure it out, I wouldn't trade it.  Also, point size is not the only think to think about.  Ag futures also have a pesky issue with limit moves from time to time - the risks are very different from an ES contract.  I speak from being 16 days on the right side (luckily) of a move in Kansas Wheat a couple of years ago...:)

    iT IS /zs on my platform.. it might be different on others

    Don't trade something just to trade unless you understand how the futures work.     That's why I said "some of you guys"
