Not entirely sure what you are after, won't need to hedge on the FTSE DIVI trade, or are you just wanting to hedge?

I didn't understand the need two have to separate futures accounts as he said, when one can do?

In some countries you can't BUY and SELL at the same time so if you wanted to hedge you would have to have two accounts, if you are just averaging out you're right you only need the one, also if you are trading the FTSE DIVI not all brokers will pay the dividend but you can still trade the gap just go LONG after the FTSE has dropped 16:31, hope this helps...

Was hoping it would track a bit lower, rinse and repeat

Been thinking as to what's going on with Terry's gift horse so had a look inside his mouth. I'm guessing the div trade has a high success rate as those traders getting the div at (ex-div issue) are reinvesting back into FTSE companies thus balancing the overall price and pushing it back up. Couple this with the overall trend of indices to rise (eventually) gives this a high probabability/edge. Just for clarity here's the word div a few more times in case it hasn't been mentioned enough in the div trade posts regarding divs. Bring on the experts.

Where can I find Terry's original post in English? Does this strategy also work on other indices?
