Trading Russell 2000


On 2012-03-02, By MarketVolume.com Team

+15 points on the Russell 2000 index futures

This week's SBV chart example is based on the 5-day SBV(20) Russell 2000 emini chart and this chart example is the continuation of the previous week's example where used the same chart's settings.

1 point on the index = $100 on 1 emini contract

15 point on the index = $15,000 on 10 emini contracts

Chart 1.  Russell 2000 index futures.
5-day view. 1 bar = 5 minutes. SBV Histogram(20,9)

Russell 2000 index futures march 2012

In our trading example, we applied the following simple system which is based on our SBV Histogram:

  1. Once the SBV Histogram has advanced above zero level (after having been below that level), we will enter a long position;
  2. Once the SBV Histogram has fallen below a zero level (after having been above that level), we will enter a short position;
  3. Close Position at the end of a trading session.
  4. Do not open a new position if less than a half of our left to the market close.
