Are You Really a Trader or Do You Simply Call Yourself a Trader?
Knowing how to day trade S&P emini futures first starts with getting an education and studying the things a trader needs to know. That’s no different than studying anything else in order to acquire the necessary skills. To learn how to day trade S&P emini futures, a would-be trader needs to learn how to trade. Anyone can call themselves a trader, but without an education, the person is a trader in name only. To really call oneself a trader, the individual needs to study the market and its characteristics. Those characteristics can be confusing to learn, because to the uneducated, the market seems to move with no pattern or structure. But an educated trader knows this is not the case because that person learned how to apply numbers to the market. That knowledge informs the trader where the market is likely to trade in the near future. Along with learning the characteristics of the S&P emini futures market, a trader needs to know the basics of trading: what is a trade? Not simply to execute an order, but to recognize a trade set-up. There are basically 4 different trades, and a trader needs to know each. Then there are the rules of trading that a trader needs to learn. And beyond that, a trader needs to know the day’s trading zone. I teach all of this in my emini trading course at TimelessDollar.com.
