Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The trading, day trading, and investing of financial products are terms that are used to describe the buying and selling of electronic financial products. Day traders and traders use computers to buy and sell in the financial markets. #2 The markets are the group of financial trading people, products, and platforms. The market is the loose association of professional and personal traders and investors who carry out both short-term and long-term trades and investments in financial products such as stocks, foreign moneys, and commodities such as gold and oil. #3 Market makers are traders who make money by buying and selling all available stock. They are the first to buy and sell all orders coming through the exchange floor, and they earn a commission on each trade. #4 The world’s marketplaces help buyers and sellers determine the current price of what’s being traded. The prices are updated constantly, allowing traders to see what a trade is worth moment to moment. The difference between the buy and sell prices, called the bid/ask spread, is pocketed by the dealers and floor brokers as their profit for the service of being market makers.

Wiley Online Trading for a Living When to get in-when to get out Build, test & trade a winning system Online brokers, research & market data For those who are well suited to day trading and short-term trading, the futures market is one of the best games in town. As the original short-term vehicle, the futures market allows the trader to collapse the time frame in which he or she can reach the desired profit target-or pain threshold. As a result, wins and losses are compounded much more quickly than in stock trading-and, in the case of wins, often more profitably. The ability to gain leverage with very little on margin gives you, the trader, the ability to earn more off smaller swings. And enough home runs could allow you to become your own boss, work from home in your bathrobe, or even work from your cell phone while lying on the beach. So far, so good. But what does it take to win? In Day Trade Futures Online, award-winning veteran futures trader Larry Williams gives a no-holds-barred view of the risks and rewards of this increasingly accessible arena. His straightforward approach to helping you determine your trading personality is the first step. Then he offers traders what they really need: strategies and tactics designed to beat the futures markets. From hardware and software setup to trading psychology and successful strategizing, this highly readable book covers all the bases needed to prepare you to trade online, including: * Assessing your risk threshold * Streamlining the glut of trading and price information to make it work for you * The importance of knowing how to manage your money * Choosing an online broker and utilizing other online resources, such as news, chat rooms, and message boards * When to get out of your trades * Building a system based on Larry's time-tested strategies . . . and that's just for starters. Also included are an appendix of basic futures concepts and a select bibliography of some of the best learning resources. With good humor and brutal honesty, Williams guides you in building the trading system that will work best for you. GET IN ON THE ORIGINAL SHORT-TERM GAME WITH BIG-TIME PROFITS With unflinching honesty and decades of trading experience, award-winning veteran futures trader Larry Williams lends his expertise to the many aspects of futures trading online, including: * Winning strategies * Determining your trading personality * The art of using the Internet * Hardware and software solutions * History and development of short-term trading Praise for Larry Williams and day trade futures online "Larry Williams, the astute and experienced trader, has presented the reader with many computer-tested patterns that should give one an edge up in the hard world of day trading.
