Which is better for ES intraday trading ? 1- Directly trade ES long or short ? 2-If i want to be Long ES : I will buy ES and short one of today's laggards stocks , and vice versa if i want to be short ES ? 3- If i want to be Long ES i buy one of today's best performance stocks without buying the ES and i short one of the worst performance stocks if i want to be short the ES ? 4 - like choice number 3 but i do it with more than one stock ? 5- something else like options for example ? Remember i am talking about intraday trading only ... Please share your views ....
