Hum, aren't these investment instruments or vehicles; not markets? Maybe
that is just splitting hairs. The original input here(not by me) was that
the S and
P's are not meant for the public. I suspect that the whole issue is moot,
because the public is trading all of the markets despite whomever they were
meant. Why? Because with the big risk comes the opportunity for big
rewards. So if you want smaller risks/rewards consider Doc's list or learn
how to control your risk with other instruments.
Do any of you day trade the S&P with options(especially straddles). I
always
wondered if it could be done.
