Re: DBC vs Quote.com Midam trade

I'm afraid that this is somewhat of a generalization. You can trade the
Midam mini's profitably if you buy low and sell high enough or vise versa.
Especially the mini T-bonds that I carefully studied last time I had real
time data. By all reports they are liquid enough to day trade and are seldom
a tick or two different than the full size bonds. If you are looking to
trade small, some of the minis are suitable. Always ask your broker what the
latest volume and open interest is before placing an order. If the OI and V
is only a few then I'd look elsewhere.
