I took a break from trading for a while. I kept blowing up my account because I lacked discipline and sticking with my strategy. What I do now that's really helpful is to keep a trading journal of my daily trades. I also set a daily profit target and a loss in my head I'm willing to give up...

Hi AMP! I visited the webpage and I was wondering if you give demos to test out TT platform?

I've traded with Cannon Trading now for over the past few years and they're great. I use two different platforms with them through two different FCMs because I wanted to keep my funds diversified from all the MF Global and PFG scare. I use E-Futures which is their free platform, the clearing...

Are you day trading stocks or futures?

Sir you are right! If you don't follow your trading rules and let your emotions take over you are sure to lose that day. You have stay discipline! That is what I know. My broker over at Cannon, I follow his blog and he wrote this article once that helped me out. Might be a helpful read for...

LOL seriously what a waste! I can't believe I actually read the initial post. @Clarence416 NOT very insightful AT ALL!

Honestly, it's all about discipline. If you don't have discipline when it comes to trading, you're going to keep losing money. You need to learn to trust your set up. Set up a daily loss limit and profit target. If you keep scalping without any clue as to what you're doing, you're basically...

You're account balance into the close would be $9k. When the market reopens your account will still be at $9k unless your positions moves into profit or further against you? Lol you might just want to try a demo account buddy.

Just remember when trading FX there are spreads and your trading against market makers. FX is not traded on a regulated exchange like future currencies are.

There is so much information out there. It's knowing how to filter through everything. Are you trading futures or stocks?

Here's a recording of an options webinar for futures I attended recently Hope this helps :)

All I can say is do your own research. Come up with a strategy you follow strictly that allows you to feel comfortable trading. Concentrate on one or two markets for the first few months and after you feel comfortable trading live you can expand. Also keep a daily trading journal has always...

This is how I check my day trading margins and overnight margins with my broker :) http://www.e-futures.com/margin-requirements.php

I've heard good things about The Trading Zone. I'm planing to take there free trial soon. Here's the website: http://thetradingzone.com/

Depending if you are looking to day trade or hold positions overnight. If you hold positions overnight you will need full initial margin per contract. Day trading, I say at least $2500.00, swing trading (holding positions overnight) I say at least $5-$10K. Just my opinion

I stumbled across this post about Cannon Trading and I know this post is old but I wanted to post something because Cannon is my broker and has been for the past few years. I took a break from trading for about 3 years to save up some risk capital so I can start trading again. I recently came...

I took a break from trading for a few years. I definitely still watched the markets and was very active with my trading journal even though I was not trading. I observed, I learned and when I felt comfortable I started trading again. My starting capital to trade ALMOST full time was around...
