Trading eminis can be a very profitable occupation, but it takes a hard work and a lot of determination to become a consistently profitable trader. Not to mention that you also need a strategy that would guarantee a positive edge over a longer period of time. It is not easy to combine all these elements into one robust package and so no wonder that many wanna-be traders fail at this endeavor rather miserably.
When this happens, they invariably turn to more accomplished traders, or at least those who act like that, for help. Little do they know that this is usually the biggest mistake they can make as it very often sets them on the path of seeking the holiest of holy grails, a trading method that never fails. And while the method like that simply does not exist, it is not impossible to find those who offer it for sale.
There is only one way you can become a profitable trader, your own unique way. I wish more books and trading courses emphasized this aspect of trader development, but, alas, that is not the case. There is, however, one book, that does so splendidly and even though it does not address trading eminis directly, I recommend it wholeheartedly. This book can be obtained online in its digital form. It is called "Bird Watching in Lion Country." Before you ever start trading eminis or any other financial instrument, I strongly recommend that you equip yourself with the wisdom this ebook delivers.
There are many emini trading courses out there, most of which can be not only purchased online but even downloaded right after the transaction is completed. Some of them cost thousands of dollars, others retail in the hundreds of greenbacks, but there is also a niche of ebook emini trading courses that can be purchased for less than $100.
Before you ever purchase one of those overpriced, and more often than not, worthless courses, I suggest that you start with those priced below $100. They are about as good as the more expensive ones. I also suggest that you stick to ebooks that come with a money back guarantee of some sort with conditions that are clearly spelled out. Your best choice in this respect are ebooks offered by Clickbank vendors as they are supposed to adhere to an 8 week (or 56 day) money back guarantee. And while it is certainly true that most of them do so, some may bend the rules more or less in their favor. Keep in mind, though, that these practices are not always recognized as legitimate by Clickbank. Sometimes this guarantee is totally unconditional, which means that if you are not happy with the product for any reason you can get your money back, but you are also entitled to it if you believe that the sales page was misleading in some way.
