Message For Ftse Traders......

[Splitlink]

Hi guys just want to check that you are all trading the ftse cash as opposed to the ftse futures?

I'm on cash, at present, but I am not as quick at posting as you guys. Have a good day.

futures via SB

AH ha thnks minme, i use the cash which explains the differant price althought the market moves in the same direction.

I use GFT as an SB which gives me a 1pt spread on the cash from 08:05 til 16:30

using the IG CFD's think they are cash priced.

The convenience of the Daily Future is that it is EOD close..no roll over.

i use futuresbetting, which let me trade the real underlying FTSE future then take away .5 or .25 of a tick, .25 once you have done over 201 lots in a month.

stop @ break even

Thanks all, for your replies

I looked at futuresbetting a few weeks ago, was thinking of opening an account to spread my trades around.

i like them, as i have always traded DMA not SB, and this is as close as you can get to the underlying and still call it a SB.

i also dont like it when people say

" i had a spike on my chart and got stopped out"

when the ftse did not move .

you dont get that with FB
