The current futures broker that I am using has money managers that use a lot of options on futures contracts. They send me their thoughts so it will be interesting to see their perspectives on this. I used to love to trade gold and es. I wanted to focus solely on forex and now am beginning to branch out again. With the new margin changes leverage won't be too different from futures to forex.
i love options also. i just picked up some contracts today in RIMM. bought at
.50 now up .75. not bad for a couple of hours. i'll be holding on to them for a couple of more days hopefully doubling my money. had a bad morning trading this morning got stopped twice for a 30 pip loss in the AUD.USD.
