AFT version 2021.4.21.1 supports Micro FDAX since April 21st and Micro Bitcoin, ready for May 3rd.
Micro FDAX – FDXS
Eurex announced on April 19th that FDXS Micro FDAX is now live, and AFT now supports this instrument. FDAX offers approximately 150 ticks range and has two distinct sessions: Eurex and US open, where you will often find a good run, making FDAX one of the most tradable instruments but very large with a gap each day. Micro FDAX will also provide a near mirror of the full contract and mini. Chart settings would be the same as MES, ES as currently, those have the same range as FDAX.

Micro Bitcoin
This is exciting news. BTC and ETH have a daily range of approximately 500 ticks. Only Micro Nasdaq, as of the time of writing, has a bigger daily profit opportunity. The full-size contracts are less than 10K volume per day and represent a significant danger for swing traders. Day trading requires opening, closing, and managing the risk and market exposure. Therefore, Micro Bitcoin will offer excellent volatility trading and should be day traded, closed out, and not left overnight or over the weekend. Workspaces chart settings would be similar to NQ MNQ Nasdaq chart sizes but no smaller than RTY/M2K.
The micro contracts will provide a low-risk trading opportunity allowing session breakout trading, trend arbitrage, and general day trading volatility. Trend scalping momentum trading styles are recommended. Due to gaps on Micro FDAX and Bitcoin volatility, day trading is the safest approach, entering positions and closing out trades within the regular trading hours.
