Intraday Trading of Grain Futures and Corn Futures
LiveTradingZone replied to futurebondtrader's topic in Futures
Soybean, Wheat, and Corn are all great trend type markets. For the "best" I would say soybean trends more often than the others in my experience. Mini corn is very illiquid. Probably not something you would want to trade. You would have large slippage on your stop orders. Regular sized corn is only about $2k in margin though, but it's best to make sure each trade has less than 2% risk instead of looking at margin. Hope that helps! -
Introduce Yourself Here - Don't Be Shy!!
LiveTradingZone replied to trading4life's topic in Beginners Forum
Just wanted to introduce myself to the forum and say hello. I have been a lurker for a while now and this is by far one of the best trading forums I have seen. I will try to help out where I can in any advice that I can give. I have been trading futures and commodities for over 11 years now, but definitely learn something new every day! :haha:disclaimer: I trade my own strategies, programs, and daytrading accounts, so selling is not my priority even though I am a vendor. The last thing I want to do is try to sell people and I try to be the most transparent and honest vendor out there. I do not teach because I don't believe trading can be "taught", but like I said before I will try to help where I can. Don't be too harsh on me...I know how forums hate vendors, but I am a fellow trader too :beer:- 2024 replies

What's Your Experience with 'renting' Strategies
LiveTradingZone replied to maguiredan's topic in Automated Trading
SuperEA, I have tried hopelessly to warn you against starting our program after a streak of winners then stopping after a few losers and starting again after it goes on a winning streak again then stopping when you experience some losses. I have repeatedly stated that you need to stick with the program, whatever program you choose to go with, ours or others, through all the winners as well as all the losers. Panic trading will only cause you to endure losers. Your nonconsecutive "70 days" of starting and stopping our program has only gotten you into losers. You never even really came close to the max peak-to-valley drawdown that I disclosed to you at the beginning of each time you started the program with us. You did experience a small streak of winners during your second go around, but you quickly halted the program again once you began experiencing some losses after you doubled the number of contracts. Our trading record is also extremely accurate with the exception of a few lucky/unlucky high/low ticks each month that each individual might encounter that the program did not record (ask any member, we are the most honest vendor on the internet). However the case, each account will average out at the end of each month assuming you let it run without interruptions. Any slippage will be minimal and will also average out. You were also in double the program thus giving you losses that were larger than the records. Remember, there are no existing programs that will never go through drawdown periods and always be winners...they simply don't exist in the real world. All you can do is try to withstand the drawdowns and wait for the winners. Good luck in your future trading.- 34 replies
