In this video, I continue working through my futures trading prop firm YOLO challenge. I interact with the market in real time, address the complexities of building and managing a position, and explore the operational differences between futures and equities. My primary focus is on applying technical trading principles, including evaluating areas of resistance, potential pivot points, and examining moving averages as reference levels. Throughout the process, I adhere to a set of constraints provided by a member of my trading community. This approach emphasizes controlled but substantial position sizing within the futures market. While I do not rely on the pattern day trading rule, I recognize the importance of maintaining strict discipline and risk management, even when engaging in higher-risk “YOLO” trades. I present the price action methodically, specifying entry points, stop placements, and potential outcomes for each move. This video aims to offer a technical, educational perspective on futures trading that demonstrates both the practicality and the volatility inherent in this asset class.
