Hello, my name is Arnas. I'm 22 years old. After finishing high school, I was interested in day trading. However since trading requires starting capital and is considered a high risk. I needed a stable job first. So I became a web developer. Currently I have a stable job, and spend about 3 - 4 hours learning to trade. Hoping to turn it into a career.

Thanks Mike for this Forum.

I mostly traded forex and stocks. Recently (about a year ago) started trading ES futures. I found this forum when i searched for information on futures and platforms etc...


I use TOS and recently started using Sierra Chart.

I recently took course from Jim Dalton in Market Profile and it is very informative course. I am trading the futures based on Market Profile. I am still in the begining stages of using the Market profile. Hoping to learn and share my story.

Hi all,

i´m from Frankfurt, Germany and work as a Business Intelligence Developer.

For around 1-2 Year i spend 1-2 hours Daily learning to trade to make it a side hustle.
Been working through Adam Grimes "The art and sience of technical analysis" and traded
stocks and CFDs. Did only discretionary swing trading on the pullback. Build my own
trading journal to review my Trades (5-8 per Week) and see my account bleed out slowly
(meaning no real edge but ok-ish risk management).
As i want to find a (more or less) reliable edge in the market i´m currently searching for
a way to statistical edges and systematic trading. Currently using Quantconnect to test
my ideas on the market, as using ninja trader with historical data sees really expensive
(while you are still learning).
Still swing trade stocks discretionary with interactive brokers filter with Thomas Bulkowski's
Patternz Software.

Now want to focus on commodity futures (like Crude oil...). I hope focussing on around
10 Futures markets makes it easier to find edges and understand the market. Also trying
to combine it with COT Data and Seasonalities. As i heard it's a useful approach.

Looking forward to talk to other traders in the futures market or making their way into it.

Best Regards,
Beaker

Hello Everyone,

I live in Brazil and have experience trading some national markets. (Stocks, USD-BRL Futures, and Corn Futures)

Currently I work at an Agricultural firm where I am responsible for Trading and Hedging Soybeans and Corn using CBOT futures.
And although it is great to work with Trading for a company, I would like to someday make the change and trade professionaly for myself.

Thanks for having me, It is great to learn and share ideas in this forum with you!

Hello;

I live near Versailles in France. I started trading on CFDs, then Forex, a year and a half ago.
Like everyone I lost several times, I used the indicators at this time (ichimoku and Co, and Price Action with basket for Forex).

Last August I discovered the futures, it isn't easy and not very graphic compared to the CFD. But it's a real pleasure to rummage around and customize my Sierra Charts platform every day.

I continue to lose a little on the markets, but much less than in the days of CFD / Forex.
Sometimes I happen to freeze and miss easy trades.

I see that I still have a lot to learn and that is why I focus on the Dax, MiniDow and MiniNasdaq indices by carefully watching the movements of the s & p (and the Bund in the morning)


Thank you for all these knowledge sharing


I wish you all a merry Christmas

Best Regards

ps: Sorry for my bad's English

Hey Everyone,

After two years of learning options, I'm still at square one. Fortunately, the 9-to-5 keeps us in food and heat. Hopefully, trading futures will be easier to understand (and do).

Doug

Hello everyone

Not sure where to start, so.........
Been trading on and off for many years, learned the hard way that I should spent more time off than on.
Now I mostly day trade YM and RS, and very cautiously at that.
Don't really know any other traders and generally I haven't been much of a poster on other forums.
They just didn't do it for me.
This site strikes me as much different and thought I'd jump in and see what happens.

Hi everyone, I am a mechanical system based swing and a day trader. I blew up my accounts multiple times using discretionary setups before becoming a mechanical trader.

My setups involve the moving averages now and I trade the Indian exchanges on select individual stocks and commodities.

Looking forward to spending some exciting time here! All the best everyone.

Happy holidays!
