Are there any American style options that track the FDAX (something similar to the SP globex options would be ideal)? The closest thing I have seen is the ODAX but I don't have the l2 data to view the depth. My goal is to capture a 75 - 300 point directional move in the underlying future with defined risk/reward (will most likely be selling verticals when I can physically be there) without the risk of holding the future. EWG doesn't move enough for me to make this worthwhile. Also how liquid is the ODAX (meaning after you robbed the place how easy is it to get out)? Thanks.

It looks like the previous poster's comments were deleted hahahahaha.


I was going to ask if it was liquid enough to scalp (not that it's my intention but if the opportunity strikes ).


Another question (just trying to get varying opinions as well as to validate what I noticed watching the resting orders and the footprint) why is no one willing to make a market in the fdax?

Can any give me a brokerage which allows options trading in DAX (ODAX) . AMP does not provide me access to options , they have only futures.

Interactive Brokers should allow for trading these options.

Best regards, Myrrdin

To my knowledge US brokers are not allowed by SEC regulations to offer foreign options - just the underlying futures - without further arrangements between foreign exchange and SEC.

Kind regards
