Hello
I'm new to derivatives trading so I'd be grateful for a bit of advice on the following:
What’s the average size of the spread for a (nearest) FTSE100 Futures contract? I’m considering opening an account with ODL securities (Mybroker) for intraday Futures trading.
I noticed another recent thread where a similar question was put re-tightest spreads with spread-betting firms. One contributor mentioned futuresbetting.com which seems to give good spreads
See //www.trade2win.com/boards/showthread.php?t=15688
But, leaving aside the tax-free advantages, don’t all spreadbet companies bias their quotes for indexes depending on which direction the Futures is moving - so in effect they’re considerably bumping up their official spread ? I may not be right about this so please correct me if I’m wrong.
For that matter, what’s the typical slippage with regards to trading (nearest) FTSE100 futures?
Thanks in advance,
Ja. S.
