It’s Wednesday… The mid-point of the trading week! This is the day when we discuss the fundamentals of futures trading. We’ll talk about futures contracts and how to trade them.

As many of you know by now, trading has the potential to be extremely profitable. 

Billions of dollars move through the futures market every single day, and you have the opportunity to capture some of that wealth. 

However, in order to be a successful futures trader, you must learn the ins and outs of the craft and avoid making the mistakes that have caused many people to lose money.

Read on to learn more about how to build a solid income stream with futures trading…

What Are Futures?

A futures contract is a contract that two entities agree upon to be executed at a future time. 

Many things can happen before the transaction is completed, even if the contract continues to run at a constant pace until the execution date.

However, between the execution and settlement of the contract, traders are free to trade these futures contracts. How does that happen?

Well, traders buy and sell contracts through a broker. These brokers have online platforms that allow you to place trades and view price charts of the futures contract. 

You have the option to buy or sell futures contracts with a simple press of a button, and the platforms make it as easy as possible to navigate and monitor your trades.
