ES has the most volume and still the margin is 500 usd. But then again, reduction in position size does not equate to lowered risk. The last question for SGX to answer is how attractive is it to trade the SiMSCI? For $6000 and 1 pt gain is $200. An ROI of 3.3% is not worth my effort of screen time.
