And if you can, you might try limits a few points away from the 
market.  It's amazing how often you'll see the NQ moving along in a 
nice clear trend, and suddenly somebody will get filled 2-5 points or 
more off the "right" price.  I don't know if people are leaving 
orders around too long, or placing them too late, or what, but if 
you're fast on the trigger you might get a bonus.  (Haven't tried it 
myself so it might be hard to do unless you've got a Globex terminal. 
 Watch the ticks for a while and see what happens.)
