I'm looking to trade Dow minis and Nasdaq futures, what are some good firms you guys recommend to open an account with? Also, where is a good place I can learn more about index futures trading. Books? Web sites? I'm a newbie at this, but actively trade other instruments. Thank you.
hello sir have you tried trading ETF's like DIA , SPY , QQQQ . IWM ? if you do not have success with those there is no way you will be successful with stock index futures
Lots to pick from. A couple I can recommend are http://www.cannontrading.com/home/ aka e-futures.com. That's "e dash futures" http://www.dormantrading.com/ And there are many more!! Somewhere here in ET there are links to check nfa compliance and clearing firm financials. A good thing to do regardless of who you choose.
