  1. Hi All,

    I like to know, what are the avg rollover costs/price differences of futures (forwards) on US main indicies?

    What are you Experiences, because I like to be invested for about 5 year in high leverage future forwards on US main indicies?

    Thanks for you responses!
     
  2. There is no rollover. You close out the expiring contract and initiate your position in the next contract. Buying and selling... commissions apply to each transaction.

    If you want 5-year exposure, better to hold SPY ETF.

    Some brokers will apply half the usual commission costs to a rollover
