The Skinny On Futures Scalping
Update: 2025-08-29
Description
Tom and Tony discuss futures scalping strategies, highlighting key differences between options and futures trading approaches.
Futures excel for short-term scalping due to high liquidity, leverage, and low transaction costs, while options work better for longer-term strategic positions. The tastylive platform uniquely normalizes futures contracts by showing ETF equivalents, making position sizing more intuitive.
Notable market moves included NASDAQ dropping 1.25%, Bitcoin falling 3%, and gold rising to near highs at $3,500. The hosts recommended avoiding exotic futures like microether and micronatural gas due to extreme volatility and liquidity challenges.
