Futures Options Feedback: Listener questions and comments

  • Question from LL43: Is buying straddles a more effective strategy in #futuresoptions due to the different nature of decay or is it still necessary to scalp aggressively to survive?
  • Comment from Hawkeye: The Business Show should use as its motto, “The Business Show: It is an audio train wreck!” You cannot stop listening no matter how much you know you should not. While I am at it, I really like Nick and the new revitalized futures shows. Even though I do not trade futures options, I still use the concepts to trade some of the ETFs/ETNs.
  • Question from JGrange: Are there dedicated futures volatility products or ways to trade commodity volatility directly?
