This thread, "Introduce yourself here," is here to give newcomers to the forum a convenient place to introduce themselves and make what is often their first post. It's a place for them to get their feet wet and find out how to post. It's for introductions.
Other than short "welcome" type greetings from other members, it should be used only for this.
When you have a substantive post to make, or want to engage an issue raised in someone's post, please make it in another, appropriate, thread, or start a new one. This is true even when your point, that money management is critical, is both true and important.
Please respect this.
Thanks.
Bob.

I am fairly new to the futures. I was mostly investing in/trading stocks and options for the past five years and was making around 15% a year (who wasn't in this market). However, realizing we are at or near the top of the market and historically stretched multiples all around, I just want to learn additional tools / explore commodity markets. Looking forward to learn and absorb!
Thanks for having me.
I live in Tenerife , can,t write fluent Spanish and am happy to have found futures.io in English.
My name is Denis, born in Malta and moved to Tenerife in1986.
I look forward to improve my trading skills and making new friends by joining this forum.
Adn here, started learning to trade the Emini S&P Market about 1.5 years ago. So I'm still a beginner trader as far as professionals go.
I paper traded for about 6-8 months and went live with money. Won some, lost some. I see that my strategy works when i follow all the rules, but its more of the mental game with me that is my challenge.
some times I get nervous and second guess myself, when opportunity presents itself and don't take the trade and end up mad at myself for not trusting my strategy. And other times I get to aggressive and I jump in and break my rules when I should not be taking the trade.
I registered here to post my daily journals so hopefully I can hold myself accountable and get over this trading hump that I am stuck in, and improve my trading... and of course... learn from all of you!
I'm a newbie Emini trader from Los Angeles and have been trading the ES for about a year now without any real consistency in profit gain. Blew up a couples of account while navigating my way through the process and being reckless.
I'm more calmer and careful in my trading way now but need to learn so much more.
Looking forward to learn much from the wealth of informations in this forum and hopefully contributing to it as well.
Good afternoon. Thank you for having me. I used to trade futures back when you had the small satellite dish in your yard for data, must have been 1996-1997? Did OK but I was winging it and had no clue (not much different than now). Then I started trading Forex a few years back and got bored and needed my account money for remodeling. Then I decided to go back to Futures about 6 months ago and am plodding along. I use NT 8.
I am a trader with just over one year trading experience in currencies but new to futures trading. I have heard that this forum is a great place for futures traders and thought join and learn.
Hi all! I am a noob trader with 2+ years experience in trading. I trade CFDs and focus on futures markets like S&P500, gold and oil. Hope to learn more from the seniors in this forum.
