The futures desk

ES, NQ, MES and MNQ with orderflow tools instead of Level 2.

Go to /futures. Pick a root and a date; the desk resolves the front-month contract for that date.

Contracts

  • ES / NQ — the full-size minis.
  • MES / MNQ — micros. They replay the mini’s tape (it’s the same market) but carry their own multiplier, tick value and margin.

What’s different

  • Time & Sales stays; Level 2 goes. There’s no consolidated CME book in the data, so the desk shows the tape and derives CVD, Volume Profile and the Orderflow chart from it instead.
  • Ticks, not cents. Prices step in 0.25 (ES) and 0.25 (NQ); P&L is in points × multiplier.
  • Session breaks. The daily maintenance break is shown as a banner and shaded on the chart.
