Busy day for CME there xitter.cf/CMEGroup/status/211466…
Approximately $2.4bn notional of our BRL futures have already traded today following the Brazilian election overnight, a new record for APAC hours.
Our futures are fast becoming the main venue globally for price discovery and risk management in the Brazilian Real outside of onshore hours.
Liquidity that matters, when it matters most.
Nah I'm still in, wait till tomorrow to find out.
When a move is this big, I don't think there's enough data to override the rules and it's not a big enough position to risk blowing me up. I could survive even if it goes to 0.
I already got hosed on the BRL, ouch!
Never liked forex, but system's better with them than without.
I agree with everything you said, and don't know how your find the energy!
I reckon if I didn't have a family and young kid I'd post more, love talking about this stuff when have the time.
Stocks definitely have a lower barrier to entry.
Futures can be very accessible to retail, but it's not familiar to most, has a learning curve and contract sizes are lumpy. But no splits, delistings, dividends, index memberships etc to worry about.
If you equity mate'd into them from the line o credit, then you'd still be negative gearing right ;)
You've got more endurance than me. I finally left 2024 and been way happier not having to keep with drama about retards scamming retards ;)
