    Stocks VS Futures

    All futures markets are zero sum game. ETFs are not zero sum game because no one is required to take the other side. Assumming you buy (during normal trading hours) NQ and QQQQ at the SAME time and later sell (during normal trading hours) them at SAME time, do you expect to have...
