After doing a lot of research about which contract allows the most flexibility in trading, I have decided to focus my efforts on one single futures contract: The e-mini S&P 500 Futures Contract:

Here is why:

· The e mini S&P futures contract tracks the common cash index of the S&P 500.

So instead on focusing on specific stocks, which there are way too many, I like trading the overall direction of the market.

· The liquidity is sufficient enough for the small and the large trader, and one  could easily trade in and out in seconds.

· No shorting restrictions, and there are no “borrowing fees” associated with shorting the contract.

· Margins are a fraction compared to stocks, especially when you consider the entire value of the contract. So essentially, you don’t need a fortune to trade the markets.

However, my favorite feature is the ability to trade the E-minis without the same old traditional indicators.  You can trade the contract utilizing price action.

Let me explain:  I have found that because of the liquidity, the rapidness of the market, and the support and resistance that is formed throughout the day, I don’t have to clutter my charts with the old indicators that many stock traders use.

The size of the contract is as follows: X the level of the Index, so one full point is equivalent to , while the tick value is .5 (4 ticks per one full point).

This is obviously done on one contract. 

The ranges on the E-minis could be rather high throughout the day, which allows some traders to take out many points out of the markets; however my own method allows me to just take 2 to 4 points on a daily basis.

Consider that I could so do this on 5 to 10 contracts.

The method of “Price Action” and the ability to pick a small number of points, in my personal opinion, are rather the way to go, instead of waiting for larger moves. Consistent small moves that lock in profits, is something that many traders should utilize because it will allow for account growth and hopefully avoid the huge high volatility in the account equity.

Another thing to consider is that traders that go for large and extend moves typically have a much higher risk when it comes to the ratio of risk/reward.

Lastly, the advent of the internet and online software for traders allowed me to automate my methodology, so my numbers of the buy and sell, appear in front of me daily without my effort. Naturally, due to the morning volatility in the market, I am typically done by lunch time. Please take a look at my video: http://www.daytradetowin.com/videos.php 

When the economy starts to slide, people are always on the lookout for new ways to make money. This might be because they have lost their job or their spouse has lost their job and they need replacement employment. Even if everyone’s job is secure, when things start to get dicey in general, you may want a few extra dollars to put towards your debt or put into savings. There are several ways you can generate this income and one of them is by taking a day trading course that will teach you to make the stock market work in your favor. Having a day trading education enables you to participate in a money-making venture that scares a lot of people off, especially when the economy is stormy. If you are knowledgeable and understand how the market works, you can use it to get a quick return on your investments that can help you with your financial worries.

Those who are currently employed and want to supplement their full-time income with something part-time may not have a desire after a long day of work to go stand at a cash register or gardening work on the weekend.

However, if you are working in the stock market, you can work from the comfort of your own home. You can get up an hour earlier or work on things after the kids go to bed. Playing the stock market is convenient and can be done from the comfort of your own home.

If you choose to do it full-time, you can certainly make a great deal of money. Working full-time from home is the dream of many people and if you know how to make investments and capitalize on them, you can grow that knowledge into big money. Focusing on the market full-time gives you an edge on those who do it only part-time because you have time to study and you see opportunities others might miss.

Investing in a class to help you learn how to manipulate and work the market in your favor gives you valuable information even if you never intend to use it for a full or part-time career.

It is good to have some knowledge of how the stock market works. Most people have some money in stocks via their 401K or pension and knowing how it operates will help you make knowledgeable decisions, even if it is not a job for you.

Finally, understanding the market is a great way to help you anticipate problems and make moves with your money before it is too late. Too many people leave the decisions up to other people, which sometimes ends up costing them big. Even if you leave the minor decisions up to a professional, it is still important for you to know what is going on. Learning about the market enables you to supervise someone who is handling your money. Knowing the right questions to ask; can save you a bundle and taking a class online can help you understand how the market works.

I was recently reading some articles on Bloomberg.com and came across one which referred to Ms. Rosabeth Moss Kanter.  Ms. Kanter is a professor at the Harvard Business School.  Following the links in the article led me to this interview which I thought was interesting and I would like to share with you. http://www.managementconsultingnews.com/interviews/kanter_interview.php

One of the things she is known for is her Kanter Law.  This law states that, “everything can look like failure in the middle.”  If you have been following our S&P500 emini trading system you will know that we are currently in a drawdown period.  Drawdowns can feel like failure.  The feelings they create are difficult to describe, but if you trade you should be able to immediately relate to these undesirable feelings.  Nonetheless, Ms.

Kanter’s law states that it is helpful to look at the situation as if you are in the middle of a process when things are not going well.

As a systematic trader, I find this perspective useful.  By considering drawdowns as if I am in the middle of them, gives me perspective, and allows me to have confidence going forward.  Being in the middle of a drawdown period is rough, but having the right emotional and financial tools gives one the confidence to manage it.  Faith, confidence, and perspective are your emotional tools as a systematic trader.   Disciplined money management is your financial tool to get through drawdown periods.

Drawdowns are similar to being in the middle of a process.  As systematic traders, we must always be ready to face drawdowns and the feelings they create.  Solid trading models, confidence, faith, and the Kanter Law can all help pull us through the middle of this process called drawdown.
