Consider XSP as an alternative to SPX if size is an issue. Even
1 SPX option is a large chunk of notional value - XSP is 10x vs SPX
at 100x. Same tax treatment.
Downside is that you don't get the extended markets with XSP
that you do with SPX. But how many people even realize that SPX
(and VIX) starts trading at 2am?
Thanks. I’m fine w SPX size; mainly want to understand if
European settlement presents any issues. Don’t want to get taken to
cleaners unexpectedly. XSP doesn’t show good volume yet...too
new.
Consider XSP as an alternative
SPX 10 and 5 min
