What I have found is that futures trading is not as predictable as individual stocks. You have so many factors to take into consideration when trading index futures. The reason why I have chosen to start trading futures is because of the profit potential. If 1 point on the NQ is $20, then all I have to do is make two 1 point trades a day, and I will have exceeded what I was getting paid at my last part time job.

That seems easy doesn't it? It seems easy on paper, but when I go to trade on a real account, human emotions come in to play and I seem to forget everything I've gone over, and everything I've learned. Everything goes out the window when I see the price fluctuate between noise, and the real trend. I question myself, and the indicators, and the indicators are right most of the time yet I question them every time.

I will now trade on my paper account until I get somewhere.
