Episode Synopsis

Topics this week include: Equities Russell/EMini Crude Crypto Futures Options Feedback: Listeners have their say Options question of the week: We talked about crypto derivatives at the @BlockchainVoice Conference. So this week we want to know which Crypto product you'd like to see listed on a major venue next. 72% - Bitcoin Options 8% - Ripple Options/Futures 15% - Ether Options/Futures 5% - Litecoin Options/Futures Listener questions and comments Comment from Ledger8: Enjoyed your panel on crypto derivatives. Good job hitting the big points. But I was disappointed that #bitcoin options don't seem to be on the radar anytime soon. The CME rep made it sound like we won't see them listed this year. Bummer! Question from Allani: I trade a fair amount of EMini S&P options. I'm eyeing the Dow but don't see a significant amount of volume there. I've heard you mention this before on the TWIFO program. Why do you think the S&P contract generates so much more interest than the Dow contract? After all Dow is probably quoted more in the media than the S&P?
