Emini S&P is labelled as one of the most difficult financial markets to trade due to its high ratio of professional participants comparing to the number of retail traders and beginners. It is also the weapon of choice for many institutions as a hedging vehicle, making its moves very unforgiving at times. For independent traders, Emini day trading (and trading) is extremely rewarding and very risky at the same time.
This definitive guide is created to help individual traders to understand what Emini day trading is and how to profit from it. It is not the usual stuff you see out there doing lip service with basic trading meme copied from elsewhere. This guide is Emini only and hard core. Both beginners and seasoned traders can benefit from the trading tips and insights.
Note: This is an ongoing project. I will add more articles to this guide from time to time. Currently planned topics will give this guide about 25 to 30 articles.
