Hi,

I was wondering why there is a complete lack of futures and options trader within the UK? It seems like such a profitable venture, why is there no availability in the UK when it is such a big market in America?

Thanks

Harry
 
Why does it matter ?

Well as a UK resident it would make trading these instrument easier for myself. It also would mean I would not have to take into account foreign exchange fluctuations.

I also would like to sell options against my Stocks held in the UK

Have you looked at Interactive Brokers ?

It does seem like a decent alternative.

So how do people enhance the percentage gain on the stocks? For instance, what strategies would I undertake if the market is bearish or going sideways if I am unable to use options.
 
Sucden Financial offer a fantastic Futures and Options service, I highly recommend them. A great team over there with every market you could possibly want to trade.
