Title: BTC Derivative Markets / Hedging/Trading..
Post by: Xe on January 24, 2013, 08:09 am
Does anybody know any available btc marginal trading platforms?

Derivative exchanges? Futures contracts? Software?

Mtgox offers not leveraged trading only, right?

I found a couple on that site that lists all vendors who accept bitcoins. It's extremely technical based, and required 30BTC to become a member if i recall correctly. You definitely need programming experience to be able to use them effectively. Too prohibitive for me.

i would be surprised if they have derivative trading on bitcoins.

The day i see option swaps and bitcoin indexes right next to the DOW on my trading platform, i'll probably be a very rich person.

if you find something out there let me know through pm. i would be interested in something like this

I believe you're talking about mpex. They have options.

Icbit has just emerged, futures only..

Is there anything else?
