Australian (ASX) Stock Market Forum

Hmmm...   I don't really think a forum like this is the best place for this kind of discussion,  because there are so many different types of derivative instruments out there.  So I will just say "It depends."


I will say this though:  be very careful with derivative instruments like CFDs and how the collateral / margin is treated by the provider.   The ATO has continually stressed about breaches in relation to "charges over Fund assets"  and "recourse to other Fund assets."


You would also need a derivate risk statement (DRS)  to go with your investment strategy....
