Really unless you're trading incredible size most all stocks are extremely
liquid. Look at average volume to keep up to date on which stock is
currenty the most liquid. I think for all intents and purposes it doesn't
matter. Even in a thin market like today, you got filled on a 2000 share
order easily in the Tier I's and even probably the Tier II. A 2000 lot
daytrade in even a Tier II stock would go fast on most days and on swing
trades you have time to accumulate if you have say like 10,000 share order.
You can dole it out in manageable chunks. I'd say all Tier I and even II
stocks are very very liquid.
In futures all the major contracts like Bonds, S+P, ND (on most days), ES,
NQ, S, C, W, LH, LC, FC, SB, KC, etc. They're ALL liquid enough for the
average and even above average-sized trader I would say. See the liquidity
chart in TASC mag each month for a sorted list of the most liquid to the
least liquid futures markets. I think the Euro take the top spot on most
months.
