Is this tough to trade or is it just my magination. Markets are always tough to trade. You don‘t see the emotion when you look at the charts in hindsight. That‘s why I said the other day: „You only FEEL the market, when you are IN the market“. For the vast vast majority of people my advise would be: Buy and hold the S&P 500 and get a life. See, John Bogle was no idiot and Buffet isn‘t one either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people would really run a trade book, write down their feelings regarding their current open trades on a daily basis, track their p&l correctly, track their true time weighted rate of return correctly they would after 10 years realize 2 things: 1. their feelings regarding a trade were 50/50, could have tossed a coin instead 2. They did not beat the S&P 500 Total Return that counts for 95% of folks. Ok, make that 98%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think the rationale to say that those Futures contracts reflect the „right price“ is weird. See, it would be like if obe would say regarding an FX Swap that the far leg is „the right price“. It is not, it is just the Future price, whereas the near leg is the spot price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrStool Posted December 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 It's easy to make assertions without documentary evidence. These are regulatory disclosures by major European fx brokers that say that 70% of retail clients lose money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
