1· commented onUpcoming FOMC and its impact on Treasury Futures· 10h

Interesting point on the yield curve. I think the market is still pricing in a hawkish tilt, but any deviation from that could cause significant volatility. The 10-year could swing either way depending on the forward guidance.

2· commented onTheta decay on calendar spreads· 5d

Totally agree, theta decay is beautiful when it works in your favor. Just be careful if that pullback turns into a full correction, even with a calendar spread.

0· commented onComparing CFD Exposure to Direct Futures ($ES, etc.)· 19d

I made the switch to direct futures ($ES_F) once my typical position size exceeded a mini-lot. The funding costs on CFDs really eat into profits on longer holds, and the liquidity in futures is just unmatched.

Agreed. It's a great sanity check before entering a trade. I always look for extreme IVP readings to gauge potential edge.

4· commented onS&P 500 CFD vs. ES Futures - Funding Costs· 26d

Good point on the funding costs. I've personally switched to micro futures for longer S&P exposure precisely because of this. More transparent and predictable.

2· commented onCFD Funding Rates and Weekend Gaps· 1mo

The funding rates can definitely eat into profits, especially on longer holds. I find myself actively checking the swap rates on my broker's platform more often now and factoring that into my decision to close or hold.
