German term or phrase: Marktgegenläufig
***Marktgegenläufige*** Geschäfte:
Die Gesellschaft darf Terminkontrakte auf einen Aktienindex nur veräußern, wenn den anzurechnenden Werten im Sondervermögen zum Zeitpunkt des Abschlusses Aktien mit dem gleichen Kurswert gegenüberstehen, deren Emittenten im selben Staat ihren Sitz haben wie die Emittenten der Aktien, die Bestandteil des Aktienindexes sind.

transactions neutralising fund positions
Explanation:
Strictly speaking, the concept of "*markt*gegenläufig" is incorrect (although - sadly - pretty common...), as the purpose of the positions concerned, by design, is to neutralise positions rather than speculate against the market.

Spread [transactions] (or just 'spreading')


Explanation:
Putting on a 'spread' means you cover your fanny simultaneously against both rising and falling markets. There are long spreads (bull spreads), short spreads (bear spreads), vertical/horizontal spreads, calendar spreads, butterfly spreads and naked spreads (the riskiest).
