As a high risk trading type, futures trading is not for someone who is faint-hearted. Though there are a number of different ways of investing in futures , it is important to stick to what you know. Treading into unknown waters is not something that you should do when dealing in futures.

Today was the first time in quite a while I saw meaningful reversal in stock index markets. Time will tell if this was the first sign of correction or just another small dip and nothing else….
See mini Russell chart below ( the CME contract) and notice we made a new high and reversed to take out yesterdays lows and close lower then the open
and previous session lows. The action seems to be related to China downgrading the US credit ratings and perhaps sell off in CryptoCurrencies?
We need a bit more follow through to suggest more down side.

First full week of trading for 2018 started today after 2 short weeks/ followed by two long weekends.
I suspect we should see better volume and perhaps some changes in market direction but SUSPECT is in capital letters….
Until then my advice is to trade what you see and not what you want to see. Focus more on trade management and having a plan for the trade before you enter it.
We are here if you want to chat trading, markets and more!
