Delta neutral futures + options

Amadeus1991 · Aug 10, 2016

Hi,

I would like to know if someone is trading delta neutral with futures and options. Also, I'm looking for a brokerage firm that has a demo account where I could trade this strategy, but it seems like nobody wants you to test this strategy because all demo accounts only have futures available. Can someone help me find one?. Summing up, If there is somebody trading this way please post your trades and your opinion about this dynamic hedging strategy.

Hi, I can't help but would be interessted to know if that what you do is possible with IB's TWS platform with their realtime Paper Acct.
I think it should be possible.
Have you made any experiences with it?

Hi Marsman,

Not yet, but I will try as soon as I can. I want to try this strategy somewhere before trading it live.

That of course makes much sense.
IMO everybody should first do paper trading for some months before risking any real money.

Interactive Brokers Paper trading a/c lets you trade Options on Futures too

By the way when you say Delta Neutral Futures + Options can you give an example
Do you mean sell a ATM OPtion on a Futures contract and delat hedge?
With Currency and Oil Futures there are mini futures contract so you could do that but with say ES futures and Options you can't
