Trading Emini After Hours
Emini or E-mini or Emini SP 500
What is the emini? The emini is a generic term for a trading vehicle that is smaller than the actual trading vehicle contract. How much smaller varies depending on the actual size of the contract. There are emini markets for almost all the futures markets such as gold, bonds, forex and the most popular and liquid emini es. These emini markets make it possible for the small trader to be involved in the same moves that occur in the full size contracts. The 24 hour emini markets were created once computers became popular. The emini es is on the www.cmegroup.com exchange and along with other emini contracts that the emini trader can trade. We can discuss and trade any emini market in the www.eminitradingschool.com trading room.
Please note all emini markets are electronically traded and there is no trading floor associated with the emini markets. This means your stops cannot be tracked and hit by floor traders. If you compare the prices on the emini es and compare them to the full size SP 500 you will see they move in different increments and do not trade tick to tick with each other. There is a trading floor for the SP 500.
The emini es moves in .25 increments and equal $12.50 per tick. One full point equals $50.00. One full point in the SP 500 equals $250.00 per point. Five emini contracts do equal a full SP 500, but you will find most emini traders will trade 5 emini contracts instead of a SP 500 contract.
These are examples of losing and winning emini es trades and how much you will risk on emini es trades.
Our stops or risks are dynamic and automatically adapt to the current market conditions. With the ES 1 minute trading, we will risk .50 points ($25.00) to 3.00 points ($150.00) and with many of our trades risking just 1.50 points($75.00). This is 1 minute ES small stop trading. The further time frame you go out, the larger your stops and profit targets will be. For software to work on all markets and time frames, stop values must be dynamic because markets do go in various increments. The trader never wants to use a fixed value stop on data that is random and always trades with a stop.
The trader wants to be in trades that can run for a homerun or as we refer to them on our charts, “Boom trades”. Imagine the opportunities we have in the markets each day for the 6.00 points ($300.00) to 20.00 points ($1000.00) winning trades. We have a highly sophisticated paint bar study that will keep the trader in a winning trade by just viewing the color of bar. When long, we stay long while our bars are blue and yellow, and when short, we stay short while the bars are red and yellow. We make it that easy for the trader to let the profits run. For software to work on all markets and time frames, profit value targets must be dynamic for markets do go in various increments. Just like using fixed stops on random data being wrong, it is also wrong to use fixed profit targets on random data.
