you can't day trade with either of these options though - the bid/ask spread will kill you. An ALSI futures contract usually ranges between 20 - 30 points at any given time between bid & ask - comms included, which equates to around 5-8% of the average true range. Satrix bid/ask is around around 15pts which is easily 25% of ATR - and this gets magnified by the comms and finance charges on the SSF
