Eminis?

Hi ive been spreadbetting etc for a short while and timings proving a little difficult around work.

Ive been looking for stuff to trade after work for a few hours, and people keep mentioning Emini's?

Can anyone explain to me, or recommend somewhere where i find out the basics of trading Emini's please. Also what platforms / compaines support trading Emini's, im currently spread betting with IG index.

Thanks
Chris

I've heard about e-mini's... mostly at personal development pitch fests. From what I understand, they say it's a safer way of trading because it costs a small fee (like $2 or so) to trade and it uses the stock market index futures contract

Look here first:

ES, NQ, YM. Look at TF as well (traded on ICE). Emini S&P, Nasdaq, Dow, and Russell.

Come back once you've been through that lot, it will give you all the basics.
