Pivot Profits

Day Trading the financial futures is not for everyone. This is a high risk business that should only be undertaken with money that you can afford to lose. Specialized day trading web sites and day trading forums should be consulted and read in depth and understood before undertaking your first trade.

Here are some popular day trading forums:

One of the most important things you should do is to paper trade (also called sim trading) before you risk real money. Only once you are profitable with paper trading should you fund your account and start risking real capital.

Take this time while you are paper trading to educate yourself properly. Consult an financial terms dictionary and get to know and understand the language of investing.

You will obviously need a broker if you are going to trade and most brokers provide the ability to do simulated trading on their platforms. Read the broker reviews to decide which one is best for you.
