Something you should be aware of if you're trading the TF: Starting today (December 5th) the E-Mini Russel 2000 (TF) has a tick value of USD 5.00 instead of USD 10.00 while the tick size stays the same. For more info see the ICE FAQ.
Happy Trading!

Derivative transactions, including futures, are complex and carry a high degree of risk. They are intended for sophisticated investors and are not suitable for everyone. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results, and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results. For more information, see the Risk Disclosure Statement for Futures and Options.

...As CME already did for other products it seems that they need to bring a lot of small fishes in the market.
You know, the big boys are always hungry and they must be fed in some way

Well yes, for sure it brings in more retail traders. But considering the TF is a considered a mini-future it makes sense. At least on a daily basis the TF has become a really huge contract over the last couple of years. Now it will be interesting to see what actually happens to the volume.
