Holding a trade for longer.

[Rossini]

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what would be the cheapest way of holding a trade for a longer time (from 2 weeks to 3 months) using s/b? I use IG but the rollover charge on spots plus the spread seems to cost alot for this lenth of time, and I thought there must be a cheaper way? thanks

If you are trading shares its quiet dificult but indices allow for September, December, January Contracts. I trade these on the FTSE 100 as I like taking longer term forcasts and am not big into in and out trades. I also use IG and whilst the spread is larger (6 point spread) I feel more comfortable with the duration and under less pressure to make money before the rollover.

How much does it cost you Rossini for 2wks and 3mths bet. I am new so curious about the financing costs.

Why don't you just open a futures account ?
