What is a Must Know...??

Hey peeps....!


I am trading Spot FX but would also like to trade e-minis.
I have basic understanding of what futures are,but i am not sure what is a MUST know before you start trading them in terms of contract and market which are bit different than Spot FX.
For example understanding rollover,expiration and what contract month to trade seems quite important.Margins also..
Any other stuff that i should know similar to those above??
Also if anyone could post a helpful link,it would be just great...

Thanx in advance!

Come on,guys...
Am i really asking such stupid question or what??

I think most indices offered on the platforms we use are futures :-S just ridiculous ones like 20 years or something.

What kind of futures you mean? Like 3 expiry?

20 year futures? Are you crackers?

Wall street that through IG is based on something that expires 2029

also by 3 I meant 3 month/quarterly
