"Nat Gas - a.k.a. the widowmaker lol" funny Copper last two years can be on the list as well and coffee at times
serious answers for day traders. Great for day traders : - various index futures from Asian / Eur / US regions - commodities like NG, copper, oil, gold, Heating oil, RB gas ... not suitable / not great for day traders : - all food futures - bonds (unless there is interest related news ) so so for day traders - major currencies I usually trade it when there is nothing else to trade
interesting thanks. I have no interest in sitting at trading screens all day anymore after trading for 21 years, it makes no sense to me from a financial or health perspective. Now my trades last from several days to weeks/months.
great moves. Brent Crude touched 48.60 in the Feb21 contract, it's nearing my 50.00 target could get there by end of this week. I am out at 50.00 as that will be mid-range and it will no longer be a good long-term buy for me there. in fact if I shorted commodities 50.00 would be a good short but I only long commodities in the long term book.
I've been watching some nasdaq stocks in the $1-$10 range, boy there is opportunity there, insane opportunity. KERN popped to 4$ yesterday, easy, easy trading if you have a reasonable account and patience.
STRANGE .... SERIOUS QUESTION !!! if you have been trading for 21 years, you should have known which are the volatile markets !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And you shouldn't be asking us which are the volatile markets !!!!!!!!!!!!!! very very very fishy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sigh ... I have been conned. I'd better be smarter. There is simply too much garbage fake nonsense over here. I'd better be more alert and don't be fooled by people. Don't be fooled by newbie trader or fake market maker !!!! My advice is if you need information or advice, Don't have to disguise yourself. Just simply post it in ET. All the best / worst of your mister !!! I guess you will create another new nick.
There is value in what you are saying and you are right to be suspicious of everyone on a trading forum and the whole industry for that matter. Having traded for so long I do have a very good grasp of all the asset classes I would say apart from stocks, I have traded them in the past but not a great deal, the majority of my volume has been in futures. I guess what I was looking for was if anyone new any extremely volatile instruments, like insanely volatile that I could get in. I thought maybe some new crypto deal or some obscure options that someone is in. Where there is movement there is opportunity. I have researched online and found lots of retail traders trading nasdaq stock I the 50c to $10 range, they are screening premarket for gaps and max price change. While they mess around on their 1min charts I can apply my experience to trade it in a different style. If I long one of these stocks and I am prepared to add and wait the only risk to me is I lose the whole position, which is nothing. anyways good trading whatever you are up to.
