Each 1 point move in the S&P 500 index is worth US$5 per Micro Emini contract, compared to US$50 for the Emini (ES).

They have a number of advantages for both day traders and longer term traders:
Equally easy to go Long or Short: You either buy or sell the current Emini contract and there is no up-tick rule.
If you traded the SPY ETF you would have to buy or sell different ETFs (Long: SPY or leveraged SSO; Short: SH or leveraged SDS).
24-Hour trading makes the Emini attractive to traders around the world. Overnight moves in related equity markets, like the DAX or FTSE, can be played with the one trading vehicle.
