    so guys/girls whats your favorite option that you trade regularly.
     
  2. I trade NDX options
     
  3. I checked these options. Margin requirement is so high.

    I trade Z (FTSE100) and margin requirement is very reasonable and bid/ask spreads are tight as well.
     
  4. QQQQ options

    Great liquidity/volume
    5 cents bid-ask spreads

    hey swing, what setup do you use to trade the NDX?
     
  6. I trade XLE and DIA options.
     
  7. There is only margin if you are short the options or a spread. Otherwise no margin and the NDX spreads are reasonable. Also you are comparing index options to futures options which are different products.
     
  8. IWM ...
