The opinions expressed in these forums do not represent those of C2, and any discussion of profit/loss is not indicative of future performance or success. There is a substantial risk of loss in trading. You should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. You should read, understand, and consider the Risk Disclosure Statement that is provided by your broker before you consider trading. Most people who trade lose money.
I trade a lot of currency Futures. Symbols include /6E, /6B, /6A, etc.
Since C2 doesn’t offer these, I’ve tried to substitute for @BP, @AD, @EU. The value and margin are completely different which has taken some adjustments for my strategy.
However, my real concern is if these symbols are available on Interactive Brokers, Tradovate and some of the others. If they aren’t, what is used for the substitute and is sizing considered?
I think you’re mistaken in understanding the C2 symbol codes. The codes you mentioned are the CME futures, whereas:
6A=@AD
6B=@BP
6C=@CD
6E=@EU
6J=@JY
6S=@SF
Thanks, looks like I’ll need to take a closer look at this.
