  3. Stay away from Spydertrader and Jack Hershey Voodoo. It is a one-way trip to Purgatory on Earth. You will be more confused and poorer for the experience.

    Just trade as the way you see it, i don't think it's any different than stocks, although the only difference is that you can make a lot more trading futures.

    For starter I would recommend US Treasury Bonds; it swings a lot like stocks. As you got used to reading charts you can then probably move on to other instruments such as ES, ER, YM, gold, or silver...

    The market will either trends, swings, or side ways so there is not secret there to trading, what's important is knowing yourslef and your ability to over come obstacle when the going gets tough... And don't ever try too hard because the market will always be there when ever you are ready.

    Happy trading.
