Are some markets easier to trade than others?

And that`s exactly why I decided not to trade the CL

I`m only able to consistently trade the close of the ES and some days the open. Guess I`m stuck with the ES for now.

 

Try the Bond market......you have some guidance , to an extent ,by perceived future interest rates / inflation...Bernanke. If you play long / short the 30 yr versus the 10 yr. with careful stops/ratio trades, its like taking candy from a kid.

 

It's all about being patient.

 

how many contracts 10yr vs 30yr...I.E 1v1, 2 v 1 etc.

 

That's been my experience, as well. Treasuries and the S&P are most suited for a beginner, imo.
