If u ever change ur mind and see that my comments are positive instead of negative u might have a chance to survive intraday emini trading..........i don't cheer lead to make someone feel good when i know they are begging for disaster...........10,000 hours of this crap has probably made me very crazy, but not negative........just honest......here are some real negatives for you according to some who doon't want the pain of truth ............trade with the trend................buy low and sell high.............well balanced risk/reward..............money/trade management................patience.....discipline.........work a few years and u might get there.........start slow and with 1 contract............trade and test with realtime charts only if possible............breakeven is good, losing money is bad.........making money is good........don''t gamble ........means finding safe stop points that work consistently........never let big gains disappear with breakeven or a loss..........the one pulling the trigger is the only one responsible for trade........win or lose........simple stuff found all over the world of trading....why do only 5 of 100 make it and i doubt it is that high........
