Day trade micro FDAX and micro bitcoin with AFT and NinjaTrader

April 22, 2021 by AFT

micro bitcoin futures

NinjaTrader supports Micro Indices, Currencies, Metals, and now Micro Bitcoin for free simulation, demo, backtest, and replay. Live trading is available for premium and ultimate licenses for auto trading.

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.

CME Info on Micro Bitcoin

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.

AFT is 100% free for simulation, demo, and replay trading micro futures, including Micro E-Mini equity index futures, micro currencies, and micro metals! No need to pay to use—only for a live trading account. Free for evaluation trading to get funded with Trade2Earn, OneUpTrader, Top Step Trader, and Lee Loo Trading.

AlgoFuturesTrader does not make recommendations for buying or selling any financial instruments, nor do we offer trading or investment advice.

It is up to our customers & readers to make their own trading & investment decisions, or consult with a registered investment advisor.

Risk Disclosure: Futures, CFDs, & forex trading carry substantial risk and are not suitable for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading, and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Please read the full risk disclosure here.

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or adhere to a particular trading program despite trading losses are material points that can adversely affect actual trading results. Numerous other factors related to the markets or the implementation of any specific trading program cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and can adversely affect trading results.
