Hi Most times when i'm interested in going long or short european options, I need to give up because of lack of liquidity and high commission prices, the issue of taxes upon assignment doesn't help . Anyone here trading warrants ? Would they be a better choice?
Not many euro warrants traders on the board it seems. I subscribed to euro warrants live data and the first impression I get is the premium is higher than similar options' premium, plus one can't short them. Are they of any interest, or just some financial product more expensive to use than option sold to retailers by banks?
you might want to google covered warrants. there use to be a newsletter in the UK which covered this area.
Thanks. "Covered warrants " seems to be the right term for the products I mean. I'll check further, so far I only see inferior options in them.
