11:15am CDT - Major platform delays (50+ sec. for like 10 min.) just at time of my 2nd trade. Doubt I would have held much longer but I thought I was placing my exit buy limit order well below price but it was instantly filled due to delay.

For Micros, on 5/28/19 I noted volume on that day compared to full E-mini equivalents was
13% for MES/ES
15% for MYM/YM
30% for MNQ/NQ
22% for M2K/RTY

Today I looked at total July volume. 
20% MES/ES
29% MYM/YM
56% MNQ/NQ
27% M2K/RTY
Quite the continued increase. At $1.25/tick for MES vs. 50 cents/tick for the other 3 it can make more sense to trade these rather than a demo account. The biggest issue is most broker's commissions require you to make at least 2 or 3 ticks just to breakeven.

In other news, I'm glad to see the new 1/10 size Micro E-mini futures are doing so well.  Today for example, their volume compared to full E-mini contract was 13% for MES/ES, 15% for MYM/YM, 30% for MNQ/NQ, and 22% for M2K/RTY.  Not bad!  Saw this trading contest too if anyone is interested.
