This tidbit makes trading the Nas futures even more tempting....

From a newsleter which just offered to teach me how to trade them if I take their free trial <g>

Has your tax-return professional informed you that true
index options including the OEX, SPX and mini-NDX are
treated as "1256 events" and taxed on a 60% long-term/40%
short term capital gains basis regardless of timespan
held? A considerable advantage over short-term equity
trades taxed at 100% short-term basis.


No kidding? wow : )
