>>Canadian market...lacks liquidity Comments like this one really get my knickers in a knot. We have exactly the same ratio of dogs to dancing ladies as the US market. Granted, they overwhelm us with the number of listings, so there are many more attractive option classes to trade in the US market, but be careful if you wander into their dog-patch. Listings such as ABX in Toronto beats the US counter-part hands down. No contest. There are probably 10 to 15 quality classes to trade here with another ten that have their days. Check the open interest and average daily trading volume. If it don't fit, don't force it--but there are plenty of good stocks to play. Broad-brush comments like "Canadian markets lack liquidity" reveal more about the speaker than the subject. Happy trading. Porter
