I am looking to trade 3-6 months away from expiry market neutral options with low spread and high liquidity. Which options should I chose SPX, currency or commodity? I cannot go into details why I "need" to open option position. Thanks!
Yeah. When I want to buy an option I only worry about whether it should be a currency, commodity or equity option.
Absent any rationale for a decision - as here - rolling dice works well. In your case, you won't even need to buy the special Dungeons and Dragons set (lucky fella that you are!) because halving the result of rolling the common six-sided die and rounding will give you the answer you need.
Guys this is a serious question. I fully understand it looks very unprofessional but trust me it is not, it is related to estate planning for a client and has tax implications. I was hoping for a serious responses instead replies like on WSB show up. Thanks!
New guy comes to wide open internet forum about trading, asks absurdly broad question with scant details, and then says... Priceless.
Why don't you have a look at barchart or similar websites, and find the pages with bid/ask spreads, volumes, etc.
spx trades 10-30 cents wide, listed, and in the institutional market is easy to move a few hundred million in notional.
