Summary: Saxo Bank has expanded its trading portfolio by introducing 0DTE options on the French CAC 40 index, providing traders with a new avenue for same-day trading opportunities. This offering underscores Saxo's commitment to offering flexible, cost-effective, and strategic trading instruments. As a supporting broker with direct ties to Euronext and market makers, Saxo ensures competitive pricing and efficient trade execution for its clients.
In a significant move for financial traders, Saxo Bank in participation with Euronext and Susquehanna, have introduced a new offering that significantly enhances the trading landscape: 0DTE (Zero Days To Expiry) options on the French CAC 40 stock index. This development opens up new possibilities for traders interested in capitalizing on the volatility of the stock market within the same trading day. With this addition, Saxo broadens the array of trading strategies available to its clients, highlighting its commitment to providing sophisticated financial instruments to a diverse trader base.
For a detailed understanding of 0DTE options, we reference our in-depth article, "Trading 0DTE's: Getting Your Feet Wet, Without Drowning - Part 1." Particularly, Section 5, "Do We Have 0DTE's at Saxo?," offers essential background information on our current offerings, to which this new offering is a great addition. This article aims to explore the benefits and new trading opportunities presented by the introduction of daily options on the CAC 40 index at Saxo.
0DTE (Zero Days To Expiry) options are financial instruments that expire on the same day they are traded, offering a unique opportunity for traders to leverage short-term market movements. Here are the core advantages:
In essence, 0DTE options introduced by Saxo Bank for the CAC 40 index present a strategic, flexible, and cost-effective tool for modern traders aiming for precision and efficiency in their trading activities.
