With the Eurex option I only get access to FDAX and FGBL.
With the CME option I will have everything.
I only want to focus on a single instrument and at the moment I have my eye on the Bund, however wouldnt it be better to rather look at CME instruments and find something that moves similar to Bund?Then as I get better at this I can start watching correlated markets. With Eurex I have no correlations to watch, with CME I can be a data whore and load as much as I want.
TY
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
On Eurex the most popular instruments are the 3 German interest rates (Bund, Bobl, Schatz), the DAX and the EuroStoxx 50. There is generally a direct correlation inbetween the 3 interest rates. There's also a direct correlation between DAX and EuroStoxx. There's an inverse correlation between DAX/Eurostoxx on one side and the interest rates on the other.
As for the CME the product range is wider I would say.
Excellent thanks Xplorer. If NT brokerage gives access to all of the Eurex instruments (and not just the two they have listed) then I think I will go with Eurex. Since Im in the UK it makes sense to trade on an exchange in the same time zone.
Not knowing how they operate I can't tell, but my take is, when you get access to an exchange, you're supposed to be given access to all the instruments on that exchange, at least as far as watching them is concerned.
Trading them may be different, according to the broker's margin requirements.
