💡Why are some warrants not on tight spreads?

Structured warrants may not always be on tight spreads due to various reasons which include when they are almost sold out, either too deep in-the-money (ITM) or too far out-of-the-money (OTM), or are expiring soon. In some cases, a warrant may not have a bid and/or offer quote placed in the market.

Macquarie’s Live Matrix tool allow investors to see whether a warrant issued by Macquarie is on tight spreads or on wide spreads, or are showing nil on the bid or offer as well as to check exactly where the warrant price will be with respect to its underlying’s price movement.

‼️ Liquidity vs trading volume – which is more important when choosing a warrant?

Many investors still mistakenly believe that only structured warrants with high trading volumes are liquid. Unlike shares, where liquidity is often tied to trading volumes, structured warrants rely on market makers to provide liquidity.

This means that even warrants with zero or low daily trading volume can be highly liquid due to the presence of a designated market maker. The market maker ensures there is enough quantity available on both the bid and ask, allowing investors to trade warrants with ease, regardless of the daily trading volume.
