So traders being just fine trading in, in your words, "unregulated" markets won't be fine with it anymore after miniFDAX is issued ? If this is the only argument ... so be it.
That's no matter of personal preference but starts with logics.
If you think about ever having a theoretical edge over a non-DMA issuer and/or market-maker on which you depend for better or worse, dream on.
Anyone who gets that will prefer a regulated playing field that is at least as level as possible for as many as possible.
From there on it's hard (and sometimes maybe unfair) competition and you acting within .
I'm a little more optimistic since the ratio of mini index futures is normally better than the ratio of commodities.
Besides CL is already a comparably small (but very volatile) contract, only about 1/5 - 1/6 of a full-sized FDAX.
Are you seriously trading or are you just talking and hiding behind "regulated markets" ? Have you ever had to consider trading commissions and fees while trading SIGNIFICANT volume in one market/contract (>10%) and have you ever thought about the impact in your P/L? What do you expect to pay for a round-turn in the miniFDAX compared to your average volume and tick-size ?
Did you read my comments above ? Have you answered my questions ?
Do you seriously know what's about regulation in CFD's, Certificates, Warrants etc ? Do you know anything about DMA for Certificates, Warrents etc on the DAX and EUWAX etc ?
Have you ever considered any advantages/disadvantages for futures and certificates/warrants ... specially overnight ?
So still no valid arguments, except "market regulation" and "non-DMA" ... which btw shows you aren't deeply into it. Otherwise you wouldn't use both arguments ....
Up to now, more than a third of your 16 posts in 6 years are here repeating something that everyone already
understood when you wrote it for the first time. Don't you think, that's a little weird, honey?
