Learn Trading

This section gathers the fundamentals, designed for someone starting from scratch. You’ll find the first steps on CME futures, the essential vocabulary (leverage, margin, point, tick, spread), and a decisive chapter: beginner mistakes. Why so many traders lose their capital, which traps come up again and again, and how to avoid them from the start. I approach it as an active trader since 1994: no promise of easy gains, with the concern to say what trading marketing usually leaves out. The articles form a progressive path, from the first concept to your first session approached with clarity.
