January is sucking ass for day trading index futures.

Volatility on the index futures is providing a lot more opportunity but for every dollar won.....

I'm taking it fairly easy - this sort of intraday volatility in the context of an overall sideways market is no my thing at all.

I keep telling myself to make a temporary move to treasuries but I'm a creature of habit and this, like all things, will pass...

I know. I like to trade for fun and enjoy making extra money. I like to buy 100 shares of a stock and when it goes up about 5 points sell it. In my IRA I just invest and don't trade to often.
