    big interest is the trouble in trading FX

    The problem is in retail accounts where the spread on the carry is way too wide. Most of the time that you should get positive carry it is either negative or null. Only exception is AUD and NZD right now. If you where trading a "real account" or where a bank it would not be a problem as much...

    The barman special

    Well, this is gambling and the probability of making it is close to nothing. The real way to do it is start with 5 small accounts, risk a fixed % (let's say 10-20%) of the smallest account on each trade (only playing one account at a time). You are therefore protecting capital and reducing the...

    Then it means that the beta (and correlation) of the stocks to the market should be 1 and this is not so. Even after major news being taken into account every stock reacts differently to an up/down open move and to general market news/sentiment on the day.

    Dividend capture with covered calls

    IMO, options is a very efficient market. When there are arbitrage opportunities (with dividend capture or whatever) it usually means that there is uncertainty about future dividend payments. I've know guys that hedged everything else but the dividend risk and where therefore betting on the...

    Dividend capture with covered calls

    I guess the bid/ask spread on the option could be large. But more importantly, the call price takes into account dividend payments. Therefore it will decrease after ex-dividend to account for the dividend payment. http://www.theoptionsguide.com/effect-of-dividends-on-option-pricing.aspx
