Trading Futures Spreads – Basic But Important Strategy
“A basic and important strategy for commodities traders using spread trading.”
By: Mark O’Brien, Cannon Trading Commodities Broker
Over my 20+ year career as a commodities broker, I have studied and traded a wide range of approaches to trading the futures markets. From candlestick formations to the commodity channel index, from condors to turtle trading, there’s an enormous catalog of tools and methods available for traders to consider.
One method I have noticed is surprisingly underrepresented among retail traders is futures spread trading, where a single position in the market consists of the simultaneous purchase of one futures contract and sale of a related futures contract as a unit. I call it surprising because some of the most invested players in futures trading – and arguably the most sophisticated – include large speculators and commercial firms who regularly employ spreads. This includes traders in the markets who often actually buy and sell the physical commodities we trade. Farmers, ranchers and other food growers along with food producers, petroleum companies who either drill for oil or natural gas or refine these products – or both, financial institutions with enormous holdings in treasuries, equities or currencies, mining interests and their buyers – all these areas of production and distribution employ spreads from time to time as an important aspect of their businesses. Indeed, spread trading is a fundamental and essential part of the commodities futures markets.
At the same time, despite the remarkable increase in interest and in the growth in the volume of the futures markets over the years, spread trading is typically dismissed by most other traders in search of a trading strategy. With so much attention focused on other approaches related to straightforward directional trading (and within that category, day-trading) it’s not difficult to see how spread trading can be overlooked.

The next big thing in equities trading.
Micro E-mini Futures. Launching May 6, 2019.
An expanded offering, a smaller-sized contract
Micro E-mini futures fit seamlessly within our current product suite and give all traders a simple way to access the equity index futures markets. At 1/10th the size of a classic E-mini contract, Micro E-minis require less cash to enter the market with lower margins.
Four leading indices, for benchmark equity exposure
S&P 500
Nasdaq-100
Russell 2000
Dow Jones Industrial Average
Trade a slice of the most liquid equity index futures
E-mini S&P 500, Nasdaq-100, Russell 2000 and Dow ($5) futures are among the most liquid, actively traded equity index contracts available. Micro E-mini futures provide the same benefits of E-mini futures, in a smaller-sized contract.
Precisely scale index exposure up or down
Add more granularity to your trading and risk-management strategies by using Micro E-mini futures to fine-tune your index exposure.
Versatility to manage positions
Because Micro E-mini futures are fully fungible with classic E-mini contracts, you have more flexibility for managing positions as market conditions change, using the contract that best suits your goals. You also have greater access to the liquidity you need.
Subject to regulatory approval
