Futures trading is not suitable for all investors, and involves risk of loss. Futures are a leverage instrument, and because only a percentage of a contract’s value is required to trade, it is possible to lose more than the amount of money initially deposited for a futures product.

Swaps trading is not suitable for all investors, involves the risk of loss and should only be undertaken by investors who are eligible contract participants (ECPs). Swaps are a leveraged investment, and because only a percentage of a contract’s value is required to trade, it is possible to lose more than the amount of money deposited for a swaps position. Therefore, traders should only use funds that they can afford to lose without affecting their lifestyles. And only a portion of those funds should be devoted to any one trade because they cannot expect to profit on every trade.

8 Steps

My name is Ilan Levy-Mayer and I am the Vice President and Senior Futures Broker at Cannon Trading.

I came up with the following personal observations after serving online traders worldwide for more than 18 years.

The following steps are guides to progress, and are not necessarily in sequential order. Some of them are always required, but each futures trader is different and will relate to these stages in their own ways. While attempting to learn and progress, one must keep in mind that futures trading is risky and can involve significant losses. Continue reading “8 Steps to Day Trading Futures 5.23.2017”

Voted #1 Blog and #1 Brokerage Services on TraderPlanet  for 2016!!

Lately I have heard from more than a few clients and prospects that “stock index futures are just not what they used to be….” – very true!

Between QE of the last few years, regulations, the shrinking of the hedge fund population and more….stock index futures volatility and personality have changed. I am pretty certain that volatility will return but…when and in what form is anyone’s guess.

In between…there are other markets that are suitable for day trading in my opinion. Bonds, crude oil, gold, natural gas, some of the grains, some currencies….Observe some of these markets in simulated environment if you never traded them. Take notes, get a feel for their behavior. It might be time to diversify your daytrading portfolio with other markets except the mini SP 500…..

If you need help, want feedback please feel free to contact us.
