Thought about doing it on the back of the wall street rally and the good results I read over the weekend. Each FTSE LIFFE contract would have made £2000 today!

get caught on the wrong side of that trade and you'll be hurting - never underestimate leverage. also - unless you have an account set up the margins will kill you, i reckon to have a 5 lot limit these days, you'll be putting up 25,000stg, at a guess
