Today's Trade HOME Short term stock index futures trading Long Term Investing			Investing in Futures of any type involves extreme risk. You can lose more than your entire investment. We recommend you consider the money gone once you have deposited it in your account. The single biggest mistake futures traders make is to over trade their equity. When deciding how much capital you need to trade any particular futures contract, the maximum loss you might experience should be less than 1/10 of your capital. If you follow that rule you can survive 10 maximum losses in a row and still be in the game.                       Last Updated 10/29/04 11:43am EDT       What will I find here? These are not recommendations to buy or sell. These are a record of the stock index futures trades we are currently making and a history of the trades we have recently made. To avoid emotion leading us astray we place all orders Market On Close (MOC). Expectations of new trades are recorded each trading morning before the market opens. (I must remember, past results are no guarantee of future success.)           Next Trade                             Wait and watch.                   Purchase date Purchase Price Sales Date Sales Price Profit/Loss     05/18/04 1091.10 06/02/04 1125.50 34.40 05/03/04 1115.80 05/06/04 1112.80 -3.00 03/13/03 832.50 03/24/03 863.50 31.00 03/07/03 829.00 03/10/03 807.80 -21.20 02/27/03 838.20 03/03/03 835.40 -2.80 02/25/03 839.70 2/26/03 827.80 -11.90 02/21/03 847.00 02/24/03 832.60 -14.40 02/14/03 837.00 02/19/03 847.00 10.00 02/10/03 836.00 02/11/03 829.80 -6.20 11/12/02 885.20 11/18/02 900.30 15.10 10/17/02 879.40 10/22/02 891.50 12.10 10/01/02 854.50 10/02/02 830.50 -24.00 09/04/02 889.70 09/05/02 883.20 -6.50 08/06/02 861.00 08/13/02 885.30 24.30 07/11/02 927.30 07/12/30 917.30 -10.00 07/03/02 953.20 07/08/02 978.30 25.10 06/27/02 992.00 07/01/02 969.60 -22.40 06/17/02 1036.60 06/19/02 1020.30 -16.30 06/12/02 1021.00 06/13/02 1011.20 -9.80 02/20/02 1101.00 02/21/02 1079.00 -22.00 02/08/02 1096.50 02/16/02 1104.80 8.30 01/30/02 1113.50 02/01/02 1123.40 9.90                                         Short term stock index futures trading Long Term Investing HOME copywrite © 1999 - 2003 Traders & Investors Newsletter
