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.

From managing margins to ordering trades to doing market analysis and more if you want to, you can do that all by yourself – but you may betaking double the risk. Therefore, when trading in futures, it may be better to seek advice from a professional trader.

Professional trading experts at Cannon Trading can help you with your futures trading. We are also there to keep you updated with the latest on futures trading and market news. All the news and latest articles on futures trading are published on our site under the category Archive Futures Trading News, which you are currently browsing through.

Markets Pick Up Volatility | Support & Resistance Levels

5. Economic Reports for Friday May 18, 2012

 

Hello Traders,

Markets have picked up some volatility. Indices, energies, metals, grains – are all experiencing some big moves and higher volatility.

Couple of tips I want to share:

1. Higher volatility requires SMALLER trading size, since the trading bands are now going to be wider.

2. It’s ok to “miss a trade” better than a bad trade, so don’t chase the market…

3. If you are daytrading, try the following: place your entry level very close to where you were originally going to place your stop order and place your stop order higher or lower than that. Yes you will “miss ” more than a few trades but this may help increase your chances of a good trades when you get in rather than get stopped out

Below you will see two charts of the GOLD market. Weekly and daily. Gold has hit a strong support level and may be due for a nice bounce. I think if tomorrow we can have a strong weekly and daily close, than chances for a strong bounce are higher, on the other hand failure to finish the week with momentum may trigger another run at the lows and perhaps breaking these lows.

“Plan your trade, trade your plan!”

Hello Traders,

Weekly chart of the mini NASDAQ with possible levels to watch for your review below.

Patience, discipline and ability to accept losses are some of the biggest keys for any trading, especially for day-trading.

Write your rules down, post them on the computer and make a conscious effort to follow them. I know when I follow my own rules, it helps me and sometimes the biggest battle is just staying disciplined.

Hello Traders,

Cannon Trading Co, Inc. NEW WEBSITE TO LAUNCH TONIGHT!

Same great information, more tools and much better presentation and ease of navigation!

 

I wrote Friday after the close: 

“I thought we finished the week on a somewhat bearish note….

The market tried to penetrate higher the last 3 sessions and failed each time.

Also I got a sell signal on the weekly chart which I am attaching below for your review.

I think what type of price action we will see ( if ) when we trade at  1336- 1339 area, may give us further clues about this market. “

Well we tested this area today and did not get much of a bounce and actually closed right at 1336.

To me this shift the medium – longer term stance into bearish but as I said in the past, each day is different and one can not tell what the next day will bring…..

On a different note ( market) , weekly chart of the gold market for your review below with some key areas to watch.
