Show Notes
Traders must evolve with the market and this includes having to diversify the product/instrument that we trade.
Our focus during this session:
Do we need to add an instrument or should we replace the one we already trade?
What parameters can we define to select a new product to trade?
Will a new product fit our risk profile and account size?
What are some ways we can extract statistical information that will drive our decisions and approach?
What are the steps to put together a set of setups or elements that will help us succeed with a new product?
Tune in to hear us discuss how moving to a new product can be a game-changer. We have the advantage of more and more micro/small products to choose from such as the Small Oil on SMFE (SMO), Micro-Crude (MCL), Micro-Bitcoin (MBT), Micro-DAX (FDXS) on Eurex and others. We believe exploring diversity in products has never been better for individual traders.
