    Reverse trend correlation?

    Are there assets which are by their very nature behave in the opposite way as far as trendiness is concerned? So I am looking for two asset classes where if one is trending, the other is expected to be non-trending. This relationship doesn't have to be perfect/strong, but generally speaking...

    Does T3 ever provide capital, or just better leverage? I don't use more than 5x anyway.

    Being both long and short at same time

    Anti-Money-Laundering? We are taking about intra-day scalping. Flat at the end of day either way. I am not familiar with futures, but what prevents me having two sub accounts where I trade same stock - long in one and short in another? No illegal/suspecious game playing.
