Karo Cornips - Derivatives Advisor and Education Specialist
Topic: “Using Derivatives to Leverage your View”
The trading desk at TradersCircle specialises in two different kinds of derivatives that provide greater flexibility to short-term traders over equities. They provide a great way to tailor-make strategies to suit both the trader’s view and their risk tolerance, whilst reducing the capital burden through leverage. On the night, we will aim to give a practical understanding to:
1) MINI Warrants - an easy way to start out for new traders. Provides solutions for both bullish and bearish positions and choice of leverage. Tradeable through the ASX not just on stock, but also a handful of core commodities, index futures, and currency swaps.
2) Options - the most flexible instrument on the ASX. Used to trade practically any market condition. Can be tailored to suit specifics around your technical analysis and risk management to make sure the strategy suits your specific needs.
