ETF on European exchanges

[lbbo]

Hi,
I am from Italy and relatively new to rotational portfolios. I traded on futures in the past but not much on ETF.
I realized QT is mainly showing portfolios based on US ETF symbols which now are almost impossible to be traded in Italy (and other EU countries if I am not wrong?).
I was wondering if other European users found a straight solution or any smart workaround?
I assume (correct?) there are no perfect EU ETFs corresponding to every US ETF …

Any of you made a comp table or anything?

Found this later… Sorry.

Any news since this post?
Anybody conferted the ini file and standard portfolios with EU ETFs?

No updates really although some clients have created their own strategy versions. The way we have solved this is 1. Got professional status so we can trade US ETFs. 2. We trade VIX futures and options, a strategy that we may soon open to investors via a managed IB account.

If you traded Futures, then you can for example trade our Enhanced Permanent Portfolio strategy

You just have to replace SPY by ES Futures, TLT by ZB Futures and GLD by GC Futures

You guy’s really planning managed accounts with Vix futures and options,that is amazing for investors with little or no experience in trading this product’s with its specific characteristics and want exposure to it and not able to trade the ETFs anymore without professional status or an offshore vehicle for example.
When we can expect the launch?

I mostly use ETF’s on the London Stock Exchange as alternatives

For example. PHAU instead of GLD. SMTC instead of GSY.

If you search for PHAU on the link you posted, it is not found. Is that the correct symbol. Also what would you use as an equivalent for TLT and SPY?

[S.R. Renes]

Yes it’s correct you can find it under ETP’s

As for TLT there are several treasurybonds products, VDTA seems like a good proxy for TLT

I like these instruments better than the usual eurozone ETF’s because cheaper, lower spreads and USD currency, same as the base currency of my Interactive Brokers account.

Ah the link shared by Ibbo also mentions LSE ETF’s

SPY > CSSPX ISHARES CORE S&P 500
TLT > IDTL ISHARES USD TRES 20PLUS YR
PCY > IEMB ISHARES JPM USD EM BND USD D
JNK > IHYU ISHARES USD HY CORP USD DIST
TIP > IDTP ISHARES USD TIPS
AGG > IUAG ISHARES US AGG BND USD DIST
GLD > IGLN ISHARES PHYSICAL GOLD
