Traders consistent with intraday futures

[schweiz]

Don't do it the markets have become more competitive with machines. A lot of momentum strategies have very low sharpe and you need to lose many times before hitting 1 big win. Don't be fooled by the 30k pnl you see... You need to bleed like crazy every time you don't hit the strike.

it is clear that you should never daytrade. But you apparently also have no experience daytrading, so how can you advice others?

Don't be scared of failing because that's what causes you to become a better version of yourself over time. Look at the whole situation like it's a win-win for yourself. If you try and you succeed you'll feel accomplished, and if you try and fail, you'll learn and grow.

The thing you want to avoid is lack of action. In other words, you never make a move because you can't muster up the courage to try. That right there will drive a man insane.

No pressure => No Diamonds

Hello traders ... I am about to leave work to devote myself to intraday trading with futures, I need someone to tell me that yes, that it is possible to live from intraday trading. Has someone got it? It's possible? I'm very excited but at the same time I'm afraid of failing.

Yes it is possible. I left a Job as an airline pilot to make more money as a daytrader.

How much do you make as an airline pilot?

Hello friends, I have read carefully the advice of each one of you.
I think Sprout is right, the key is in the volume prior to opening.
If you notice, in the majority of free web pages, volume data is never provided, since there is the key.
If before the close of the previous day, there was a large relative volume, it is more likely that the opening day will be more explosive.
Thank you all to see if, little by little, we all win over the machines.
Any more suggestions from an expert daytrader?

For my part, I can guarantee that the simple averages of 20.50 and 200 in the 2-minute chart or the 5-minute chart work very well in index futures. I would only filter the days when it is better not to operate. Any suggestions, friends?

Let's see if we all defeat the high frequency machines.

The time you spend jerking around on a chat thread could be productively spent watching price development on live charts. Watch them until your eyes bleed, that's where your real education will come from.
