      Introduction

      Congratulations on your personal copy of Futures Trading Strategies. This book will ensure that you are equipped to begin using futures contracts as a trading instrument. We will examine proven futures trade entry techniques along with the technical analysis strategy needed to execute them.

      The book is primarily about futures trading, however the futures market can be, and often is, influenced by other markets. In the later chapters we will look at these markets individually and in the last chapter you will be introduced to exchange traded funds (ETFs), one of the most important and useful products created for individual investors in recent years.

      There are plenty of books on the market, thanks for choosing this one.

      Chapter 1: Futures Overview

      You have probably heard from friends or in the media of traders profiting from the futures market and you may have asked yourself if you could also profit from these global price fluctuations. The answer: yes, you too can participate in the futures market with a trading account.

      The futures market is exciting and broad because it allows you to trade futures contracts on everything from cotton and sugar to interest rates and energies. You are not limited to just one sector of the global economy nor to strong economic periods. As a trader you can make money when prices are going up and also when prices are going down in the futures market.

      Futures Contracts

      The base of the futures market is the futures contract. To participate in the futures market you need to understand what a futures contract is and how it works. Let us begin with a basic definition and then we will move to a more in-depth understanding of the contracts and how you can profit from them. A futures contract is a contract between a
