Futures trading
Learn futures contracts, margin, tick value, continuous charts, expiry, rollover, execution, and risk-management concepts for futures traders.
Futures combine standardised exchange contracts with leverage, expiry cycles, and contract-specific tick values. Those mechanics matter just as much as the chart setup.
A strategy can be logically correct while the execution is wrong because the trader mapped the wrong contract month, misunderstood tick value, or ignored rollover timing.
Learn the contract specifications first, separate continuous chart analysis from the tradable contract, and make rollover and margin part of the operating plan before live execution.
