2) Capital Efficiency | Mini-DAX® futures margin is more capital efficient comparing it to the direct investment in DAX 40® ETF's |

4) Tactical Trading Tool | Short-term strategy based on anticipated market trends |
5) Minimal Tracking Error | FDXM futures track the underlying index very accurately |
Mini-DAX® futures offer a variety of advantages in comparison to CFD’s and warrants on DAX 40® Index:
