The biggest thing I have learned from your channel is protecting capital and when I miss a trade don't jump in.

Love your voice and trading futures videos.

[ronaldquint]

I paused the video at 2:43 so I could better understand your trade selection. I like to give myself a few minutes to study your overall strategy. Great trade Don !

[roberth]

Thanks Don. Really enjoy watching the bracket order in action. Wish we had that Tasty Works program up here!

I know Im a year late on this video but wanted to say that its a great one. My only issue with micros vs minis is, that the commissions for the micros make it almost cost prohibitive to trade anything above 3-5. Currently my mini commission is 3.98 round trip and my micro is 1.02. While trading micros would be ideal to be able to scale the commission makes that impossible. But still a great video.

Thank you for sharing these videos. Very good message for all new traders. Including myself.

[jamesesparks]

Hi Don - Great video ! I cant seem to drag my stops on the chart to move them on Tasty . I have to go into positions tab to adjust, Any advise ?

[omarrangel]

How much capital should I start with to trade Nasdaq?

[MrNathan]

Thanks Don for another solid video and some sound advice both in general and trading the Micros. Could you tell me the minimum for funding a TastyWorks account before you’re allowed to trade futures?

[maxhanna]

Have a question sir ... when you move you stop down to protect you gain .. Does any one else except you see this move?

[leedebord]

Thank you for the video Don. Could you make a video that shows exiting a position at different times in Tastyworks? Example... Having 4 open contracts, like the video above, but you want to close 2 of those contracts once in profit and let the other 2 continue and remain open to make additional profit. Thank you. Cheers!

Hi Don, I have been watching your videos and I'm trying out the strategy on CME simulator. In this video, you put SL just 5 points behind your entry. Usually what I have seen is that NASDAQ moves more than 5 points up and down within seconds and I put SL 15-17 points behind and still gets wiped out. How is that you are managing with such less margin between your entry and SL?
