Worth trading

This morning I was thinking “Are the contracts I’m trading really worth trading”. So I thought about a way to rank the contracts I look at.

I looked at 9 Minute, 60 Minute and Daily charts, as these are the charts I look at and here are the results

First I’ve looked at the Average Range in Ticks made in 9 Minutes, 60 Minutes and during the Day and then I’ve calculated the US-Dollar Value for this period. The contracts have been sorted to show you, which contract gives you the highest Return on average on a daily basis. The higher the return for the 60 minute period compared to the daily return is, the more the contract is ranging, the lower the return for the 60min period, the more the contract is trending.
