thank you for the important ES basic information was very help full God bless, Keep up the good job you are helping lot of people who are just starting in futhres thank you again
John, this is a very good broad overview of the e-mini futures market. But I think a trading account with only $1000-$2000 capital is set up to fail. In my opinion, a trader needs AT LEAST $5,000 to start trading e-mini futures. Sure, you can probably open an account with less, but the leverage of the S&P e-mini could easily wipe out a new trader.
Stay profitable,

check my channel for video’s about daytrading and trade like me in forex (EUR/USD, CAD/JPY etc.), stocks (coca-cola, phillips etc.), commodities (gold, silver, oil etc.) and indices (Nasdaq, Nikkei etc.)
@pattystaff — Yes. They’re called “derivatives” because they derive from the underlying stock price. The contract bonus or loss happens as the stock price or index moves. A contract price doesn’t change… it’s just an arbitrary measure of exposure to the market you take.

good video. one question- is the contract a flat rate? aka if it cost 2,000 for 1 contract, can i purchase 5 contracts with 10k? thank you DTRS
@jo12208 how much $ did u pay to see this video idiot
wow, at least this guy makes sense,and explains
the good way for the newbies…..thanks
its not their fault its the fault of the people stupid enough to pay.
I disagree. The maker of this video has money from investing and studying the market and he helps people get knowledgible every day from his radio show. And if you know quality his videos help educate. You should rag on people that charge 5000 dollars for the same information.
You make your money selling crap and not by trading. A typical huckster
to “hahahahohaha” and “MikeTyson…” . . .
a million dollars to you and I may seem like its a lot of money but by today’s standards it’s really not what it used to be. a typical house goes for like half a million dollars now. (300 thousand or something).
i wouldnt be laughing if somebody said they were a millionaire. chances are somebody who’s reading this is a millionaire. i dont think its that uncommon anymore.
a million or two would be a lot of money but for a lot of people its not.
@hahahahohaha
LOL
STARVE THE BEAST!
Wall Street is a fraud, they are fleecing our country.
Trashing the economy and the value of our dollar.
Goldman, JPM, Morgan, CIT, BOA: thieves and frauds.
Govt data, Comex, The Fed: frauds.
Naked gold/silver futures contracts: frauds.
(these futures are fiat worthless paper backed by nothing)
Don’t get screwed, pull away, stay away from the wicked.
Own physical (in your hands) gold and silver bullion.
What will happen when the music stops?
Be save.
STARVE THE BEAST!
GREAT video. Thanks for explaining these things for us.
This video is perfect! This is exactly what I was hoping to find when I searched youtube tonight. Thanks DTRS!
Ooh no: sorry: I didn’t hear that: I think you said it yourself, hahaha
ooh: I heard you were a millionaire: you are on youtube everyday too!!! hmmmm
assuming initial margin of $2000 and minimum maintenance margin of $500, it would actually take thirty points to be “stopped out”.
it seems like you’re the one who is “retarted”.
Controlling 62,000 worth of stock with only a 2,000 dollar account is retarted and a ticking time bomb waiting to happen. You should only risk at most, 4% of your total account per trade. If you used this e-mini junk you would basically be stopped out of every trade if it even runs against you like 2 points.
These day traders are the biggest frauds. Of course its easy to look at the chart when the day is over and say should of, would of , could of. I laugh how this guy says you could of made $850 catching that uptrend. He forgets to tell you at what risk. If the market goes against you, you basically lose a few hundred, not to mention constant trading in and out and just churning your account. You dont make money using this crap people. If he was rich he wouldnt be on youtube.
Nice Vid mate, Appreciate it, Dont stop giving this info out for free!!!
DAY TRADER ROCKSTAR……. jesus I thought this was a KISS rock n roll clip ! Thanks for nothing. lol.
