Futures Trading is designed to lose. I have been at this for several days; I have stopped being a novice. I have been training in various ways, applying operations both short and long, and it is really impressive to see how 'The market' seeks my stop loss both above and below. Another way to see Futures Trading is like a casino, although it shouldn't be viewed that way, but it looks that way. It catches my attention that it is such a manipulated market by 'Big players' oh!! what expert people, you can't win against them both above and below. They seem like robots following the game to the letter; you can't compete against such, because if that's the case, there is a huge advantage. This is my personal opinion.
