Pardon the interruption. MGC is micro gold? Is the volume large enough?

Pardon the interruption. MGC is micro gold? Is the volume large enough?
Yes spzd, MGC is micro gold.

Liquidity is good, typical daily volume for MGC is between 35k and 50k, where GC has around 150k to 200k.
And the MGC spread is as good as GC in EU and US session, in Asian session it's like 1-2 ticks.

Attached below is daily volume chart of MGC and GC for your reference, hope it would be useful.

Thanks. I trade the MES and may add the MGC. My only concern was the liquidity.
