i think its a little of both (futures pull cash as well as cash (underlying) pushes futures)... in the short term. but that's the period we're talking about. but altho I'm more for "all sessions" for futures than not, I am totally for keeping the 4-4:15 data. I agree the overnight (dead of ETH) data is... well... dead. but there's enough activity the half hour or so before 8:30 bell that it's worth keeping on the screens. JMO.

LVL, makes sense, one needs volume and liquidity to confirm price action. Some night ETH gets it, while most other nights it doesn't get the action. Some lunch hours are like that also, the dead zone. Agree with OX, should keep the 4:15 close, the pit's still open, fwiw. My current stance is to study the indexes and add fair value to them in order to evaluate the price of the futures. Not the opposite. When in doubt, go to the underlying, (but for scalping, I'm sticking to the SP's to keep it simple). But for position trades and getting a plan together it makes alot of sense.
