MACAL: thank you

what is the full description of the bund you charted(yield?expiry? or symbol?) thanks

Secrets, Aren't Bunds are very sensitive to interest rates and economic climate?I wish there was another space of your chart where it would show us the dates of BoE or ECB or Federal Reserve meetings so we could see the movement of the chart during those days regards

I may have misunderstood you.Sorry:( .I hope the weather will get better for the bank holiday:) :)

Stevet, Never traded stoxx50. What is the value per point pls? As an index, how responsive is it to movements in Nasdaq? Which market is it traded on? thanks

Hi secrets, I really would appreciate if you could get a discussion going on bond market. My only contribution to that would be very minimal with few silly questions as I have never traded bonds. I want to go into them to hedge against the stock indexes as they usual move on the opposite...

I actually heard that being discussed on one of the BBs. I cannot remember exactly how it was so probably it was not worth remembering!!!!!!!!

According to Helenqu we are not discussing the right things on this UK tread.So I assume that maybe she would like us to discuss the weather:) Personally I think all the things discussed here so far are relavent to UK based traders or investors.

I am from Surrey as well. I would like make a comment on spreadbetting: If you are lucky enough to make money out of spreadbetter, you could have make mega money in futures. I did have the bad experience of trading with deal4free. Before anybody defends spreadbetters, i would invite them...

Hi windsurfer, yes, you have been very helpfully and thank you for sharing concept of portfolio delta neutral trading on this thread. good luck on your trading

Sorry , you actually do mention that. I am going to be a pain but as you did not put the strikes for the above, what is the criteria for strike selection?? hmmm, if these straddles are ATM then they are more or less delta-neutral, so you are further making these delta neutral with different...
