The most successful floor traders are those that have the most experiance, this is no coincidence at all and should be a pointer for those who aspire to become a good trader. Day trading can be likened to being a sportsman, such as a golf pro or tennis champion, you need to be trained and in good physical shape. Skills are needed which must be developed over time and practiced until they become 2nd nature. If you want to learn how to day trade you must be prepared to put in the effort. Here are some of the key skills that you must develop as a trader.
1. Technical analysis can be used for futures as well as the more standard stocks, options and bonds that most people trade. This can give you a large edge over other traders who have not taken the time to study the charts support and resistance areas, trendline and patterns. Learning technical analysis is really a must do if you want to trade futures successfully.
2. This is a very simple point but is very important, always have your trading plan prepared before you enter a trade, never try and create it on the fly, you will be much too emotional. Make sure that you have an entry and exit point in your plan.
3. Keep your losses small!, this is the one thing that every trader must do if they want to stay in the game for a long time. By doing this you will preserve your capital allowing you to trade another day. Your small gains will compensate your small losses allowing your big wins to give you an overall profit
4. Over trading is a big mistake that a lot of amateurs make. Professionals tend to be more patient and wait for the better opportunities to come along, this is called cherry picking and takes both patience and discipline. These are essential skills that you must develop.
5. This is a big day trading tip, it is important that you track all your trades and review them to see where you are making the mistakes. This is hard work, but this is what separates the professionals from the amateurs. Unless you do this you will keep on making the same mistakes. The best way to do this is to keep both a daily and weekly log.
6. Only trade when you are both physically and mentally prepared. This is often overlooked but is very important. Do you think a golf star can win a game when they are tired and mentally not focused?, it’s unlikely. Being prepared means getting a good nights sleep, having your trading station and charts well prepared before the market opens, taking the time each day to review your trading plan and rules. Finally you must have the mental frame of mind and confidence that you are going to be successful today in your trading.
7. If you are new to trading futures take the time to paper trade until you are very confident that you are going to make money. You will know when you are ready because you will start to hate paper trading knowing that you could be making real cash profits on a consistent basis.
Remember that the markets only trend for about 20-35% of the time, the rest is either sideways or very choppy, if you want to do trend trading to win you must be fully prepared when the opportunities arise.

After reading a good number of articles from a lot of very successful traders there is one common thread that runs through all of them on the subject of success, and what it takes to achieve it in trading.
Most agree that the most difficult aspect of trading is the psychology of trading and not the technical analysis part which is what most people tend to focus on.
Here are some ponters that should help you to develop a healthy trading mindset:
- Try to focus on the things that are going right in your trading, don’t spend a lot of time thinking about the mistakes that you have made, rather think about all the positive aspects of your trading. But don’t dismiss the mistakes either without working out what went wrong
- Always review your trades, the good and bad ones, in detail, if possible keep chart records and write on them your thoughts about why you did what you did
- Have clear goals defined, weekly and monthly, daily is usually not a good idea, make sure that your goals tie in with your money management rules
- Make sure that you have a well defined trading plan
- Always remember that trading is a probability game and as long as you have a sound trading strategy, money and risk management in place you should do well
- You must have the belief that you will be a successful trader, this will help you stick to your trading plan
If you still do not have a sound trading strategy stop trading until you do, check out this stock trading course, it’s highly receommended.

There is plenty of opportunity for unscrupulous people to make money fraudulently by launching a forex trading scam. Unfortunately there are always people who will part with money too fast in the hope of making more. However, we cannot assume that a system has to make money for everybody using it in order to be genuine. So what are the signs of a real scam?
1. Unrealistic claims
All websites that are promoting a forex product or service will try to appeal to your wish to make money. That is what forex day trading is about, after all. But if a site promises to make you millions of dollars virtually overnight no matter who you are and without requiring any work on your part, stay clear.
2. Huge earnings on trading account screenshots
It is also common for sites to provide images of their own trading account results to convince you that their system makes money. This is standard practice. A scammer will fake the screenshots using Photoshop, and it is pretty much impossible to tell.
So although having screenshots on the site is not in itself a problem, you shouldn’t pay much attention to them. Even if they are not faked, you don’t know that the person followed the exact system you are buying in order to obtain those results … and even if the figures are 100% genuine, it certainly does not mean that you will achieve the same results.
3. No guarantee
There should be a money back guarantee on any product and you should not have to jump through hoops to get it. Look for a “no questions” guarantee rather than something that says you must have followed all instructions to the letter before you can qualify for a refund. Following the instructions may include investing more money than you have.
If you are buying a downloadable product such as an ebook or expert advisor, you can trust anything that is sold by Clickbank as far as refunds are concerned. Clickbank will always refund these items within 58 days of your purchase.
If you are looking at a membership site or a service, refunds on past payments may not be offered because of the time that the company will have put in to providing the service for you during the time that you were a member. However, you should check that you can cancel at any time without incurring further charges. Don’t sign up for something that locks you in to a contract for 6 or 12 months.
4. Bad press in the forums
All products will show you recommendations and testimonials from satisfied customers. If you want to be sure you can ask for evidence that they are real, and a genuine business will usually find a way for you to contact the person if there is not already a link given along with the testimonial.
But even the worst day trading system will have some users who were just lucky. What you want to know is what the unsatisfied customers are saying. There will be some for every product, no matter how good, and you need to find them and sift through their comments. Are they just unhappy because they didn’t make a million dollars overnight, or was there a genuine problem with the product? Search for them in online forums to get a clear idea of which products are worthwhile and which ones might be a forex scam.
