Hello My Name Is Joe Watkins, I Have Been Trading The Markets Actively Since 1995 And Was Subjected :-) To My
First Stock Ownership As A Christmas Gift When I Was 8 years old (1973). It
Ignited A Love And A Sense Of Excitement That I Continue To Experience Since
The Early Days Of Coming Home From School To Grap The Newspaper To Go Up And
Down The Columns To Find What Yesterdays Action Consisted Of.
Finding Utilities Like CP&L & Progress Energy now known as Duke Power, Sporting Goods Company AMF, Or That Typewriter Machine Company, IBM And Watching Wendy's (the new hamburger joint with square burgers) On The Over The Counter Board... Cause They Wont Allowed To Play With The Big Stocks. Wow How Things Have Changed And How Information is Available 24/7 And Access Is Available To Anyone.
Now I Specialize In the S&P E-mini Futures Contract. Why? Because I Found For Me, That One Of The Most Important Traits To Successful Day Trading (were not talking investing, different strategy ) Is For An Individual To Find His Or Her Financial Instrument That Fits Their Personality, Tolerance For Risk, And Time Horizon. For Me, That Is Trading Commodities Intraday and Particularly The S&P E-Mini Front Month Contract.
