The purpose of "E-mini Trading Course?" is to prepare you to enter the exciting field
of stock index futures trading and what is more important, to put you on equal ground with successful traders. If you are interested in active day trading, stock index futures should be your trading instrument of choice. No other trading instrument will provide you with such levels of liquidity, volatility and ease of entry and exit into your positions. Volatility is the single most important factor to look for when choosing a day trading instrument. Volatility is the life line of a futures markets participant.
S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 index contracts are the most popular stock index futures. Depending on the size of your account you may choose to trade either full contracts or e-mini contracts. E-mini contracts are more attractive to beginning traders due to their low initial margin requirements. Even if you are planning to trade with a large account it is recommended to start your futures trading career with e-mini contracts.
Another benefit of mastering the art of stock index futures trading is the fact that you will be a step ahead of the traders of all the other trading instruments (stocks, currencies, commodities). Why? The reason is the fact that stock index futures do not have a leading indicator. You will learn how to trade against other traders emotions. When a successful S&P futures trader switches to stock trading it is similar as if a NBA basketball player starts playing in Europe.
