Finished up Futures Trading Class 1, 2 and 3 - Even though these are 4 year old courses they are extremely well done and still 4 years later completely applicable. On to class #4. Thanks for the great effort put into these videos and I think it was a correct decision on your part to make these very simplistic for a novice.

[@claytrader]

Glad you like them!

[@13akoka]

This was awesome. Made $1900 from 4 contracts off of a 9 point run on the /ES. Thank you!

Never thought I could understand margin and the fear of it was keeping me from trading futures... you are a brilliant teacher! Thanks, Clay! I'm subscribed and signed up for your free webinar!

[@claytrader]

Happy to help!

[@SincerelyyyKiki]

This was so helpful I could just cry. The fact that you are giving this out for free is absolutely astounding. I can’t thank you enough.

[@claytrader]

Happy to help!

[@jasonhsu9455]

Thanks Clay this is great! Just one small suggestion that maybe you could do an example for demonstration showing how to do a real world trading step by step, and it will be even more helpful. Again, thanks for the great video.

[@claytrader]

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll see what I can do.

[@claytrader]

Thanks for feedback Sam. Glad you're finding them helpful!

[@natedogg423]

Really enjoying these man, most of these KZbin traders give no market or economics background, no info on what your expenses will be or what to be prepared for... Or things to be wary of... They just jump right into what trades to take and how much they profit while shouting at you to slow down and not rush in because you shouldn't expect to make any money anytime soon...i've already learned several little facts from you that I didn't know that could have cost me a lot of money. All good stuff man thank you and keep them coming!

[@claytrader]

[@claytrader]

You are so welcome

[@sjmillercreates]

Wow! This was very confusing adding in the swing trade, good information though, need to let it sink in.

[@claytrader]

What about it was confusing? If you choose to do a swing trade, you are taking on more risk, therefore, more money is required upfront.

[@sjmillercreates]

ClayTrader Thanks for response....Coming from learning options trading, Im learning you don’t have to use margin account. But with futures are you saying that the margin is automatically a part of the account? Confusing in that it’s new and a lot to take in in the beginning, not that you were confusing😊.

[@claytrader]

Yup, in the world of futures, you have to have a margin account.

[@sjmillercreates]

ClayTrader Thanks, I’ll have to listen to class 3 again.

Was doing stock trading, swing trades happily making at most a few hundred extra a month most months, but got told future is riskier but can pay that much easily without so much time needed for the stock to move, so thanks for the classes, hope I can be as accurate on futures market and make a bit more than I currently am making, not sure about going from swing to intraday, but same strategy just different time charts, and shorter time frame.
