Meet Bedros, a family man with a military background who directs a corporate security team by day, and pursues his trading passion after work. Bedros spent 20 years trading stocks before discovering that futures trading suits his disciplined investing style and conservative approach.
Equity Index futures help him stay in control of active global markets 24/7 to minimize portfolio risk, without sacrificing what’s most important: quality time with loved ones.
Inform trading strategies with nearly 24-hour futures markets that are liquid from the Asia open to the Chicago close. Futures often have 'first-mover' status, indicating market direction before the cash open. Futures let you adjust positions before other markets are open for trading.
In his 20+ years of experience, Bedros has learned that to be consistently successful, you first need to build a trading plan that fits with your risk tolerance level. You can find a wealth of online resources to help guide you in developing yours.
Moving from stocks, Bedros learned that futures and options on futures have some important differences from stock and cash markets, but it’s never been easier to learn to trade futures.
