WHAT IS AN EXCHANGE
An exchange is a marketplace where buyers and sellers come together to
trade. But it is not the usual type of marketplace. Take a look around on any
cash or derivatives market: you will not find a trace of the goods that are
being so busily traded.
Instead, traders buy and sell certificated or standardised financial
instruments such as shares, fixed-income securities, options and futures.

Weaknesses of Futures for
Daytrading and Scalping
The bid and the ask no longer touch each other as before, and if
you want to enter 20 lots for example, you will have 4 lots at
11,101.5, 9 lots at 11,102 and 7 lots at 11,102.5 on the Dax
futures which is the most liquid in Europe! With 20 lots on the Cac
40 FCE, you currently knock off the order book, which was
BID/ASK unthinkable 10 years ago.
People who say that FCE futures are liquid, as I sometimes read,
have not seen an FCE futures order book for the past 10 years
This example is similar to the Dow Jones 30 (YM) futures which
LIQUIDITY constantly has 2 to 3 points gaps which is still very low.
This has immediate consequences on our trading results: a
portion of the sale or purchase orders are not (no longer)
executed or partially executed on futures even if the price is
affected. On American futures, with the algorithmic game and
ORDER BOOKS priority orders with CME licenses, professionals pass before us in
the futures order book, the game is distorted, we are served
only at the end of the order books even when we anticipate
well in advance Do not mince words on American futures, the
odds are stacked against us
More weaknesses of Futures for
Daytrading and Scalping
Since the futures lot sizes cannot be adjusted, we can only enter
or exit lots in sizes of 1, it is rigid; we cannot for example enter a
profit or a loss partially on a lot by clearing 0.25 of the position and
leaving 0.75 there as it is.
Lot Sizes
The costs are now often higher than on CFDs : by entering the
order book or preparing limit orders, commissions + gaps to fill
which are often higher than the CDFs spreads + the tick size
which is higher on futures
For example, by entering the order books on the Dow Jones
Costs futures, I will pay between 2 to 3 points gaps + lead/return
commissions + the tick size of 1 point. On CFDs, all inclusive, I
have a fixed spread of 1.8 on the Dow Jones with a tick size of 0.1
almost twice cheaper. On the Dax, I pay a 1 point spread on
fixed lead/return commissions on CFDs with a tick size of 0.1
while on futures I have a 1 point spread on average + lead/return
Order Books commissions + a tick size of 0.5
Compared to futures, CFDs offer ABSOLUTE liquidity; the price just needs to be
affected for you to be executed, irrespective of the number of lots. It is
absolutely revolutionary for scalpers or day traders. We no longer have partially
executed orders, no more problems of orders piling in an order book. affected

Liquidity Guarantee
CFDs have phased out order-books, the CFDs broker
guarantees liquidity and this is his problem and no
longer ours. In the past, 5 to 20% of my futures
scalping trades were not being traded or were
partially executed whereas the prices were affected, ABOUT CHART
but now 100% of my orders are perfectly executed CFD Strengths
What makes CFDs better than Futures
Spreads
The consequence is that I no longer hesitate in taking a
trade depending on the time. I know that I can exit when I
want with a spread that will not soar before an
announcementIn fact, some CFDs brokers guarantee the
spread; and here we talk of guaranteed spread. This
means that even before or after an announcement, the
spread remains at 1 while on futures it moves from 1 to 5

Tick Size
