Dax FTSE Discrepancy Trade

Filed under Discrepancy Trading, TheInflationist StockPicks

We have just opened a long Dax $5/point at 4059 and short FTSE $5/point at 3915 ie a discrepancy of 144 points. Bear in mind that it recently fell to parity during the recent decline. We expect this to widen in a recovery (which we expect).

Silver is down 3.5 percent tonight. We closed half of our silver position at 12.65 and put a stop at our entry price. Hence, we have derisked completely on silver. NEXT trade pleaseee….
