Re: New Dow Jones Mini contract

I sit corrected.  I did not know the $10 DJ futures could be traded on
a/c/e, symbol ZD.  Judging by the volume I wonder if I'm the only one who
didn't/doesn't know.  I sure would love to see this contract get some volume
though.  I never enjoy trading the S&P and with all of the DJ/ND divergent
days we have now it would be great to have an electronic DJ alternative to
the ES.
