The S&P500/Nasdaq-100 e-mini contract is one of the fastest growing electronic markets in the United States. Prices in this market move almost identically to the full size S&P500/Nasdaq-100 contract that is traded in the open out cry trading ring on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The S&P 500/Nasdaq-100 e-mini contract is 1/5th of the full size contract using the e-mini contract, which calls for a lot less capital to hold a single e-mini S&P500/Nasdaq-100 contract position.
