Dear Fellow Trader,

The Mini trades in smaller contract sizes
than the full size contracts. The smaller trade size gives traders
the opportunity to trade live with less overall risk or exposure to
the market. In addition, the Mini allows traders to become familiar
with Amp Futures, more specifically the quality and reliability of
our services and the stability of our trading platforms.
Develop a Disciplined Trading Strategy
Ask any successful trader and they will tell you that the key to trading success is discipline. Everyone has heard the expression "cut your losses and let your profits run" yet how many traders actually practice this?
Many traders will hold on to losses hoping it will reverse eventually, only to see the loss get progressively larger. These "irrational" trading decisions are based on emotional reactions to fluctuating profits and losses, a common pitfall for new traders.
Losses can and will occur. A trader's ability to limit his losses is just as important (or even more important) than determining entry points.
Because the point value on the Mini is 1/10th to 1/2 the full size contracts, traders can focus on developing a disciplined trading strategy, basing decisions on point movement and market conditions NOT P/L.
Start Small. Build Up Confidence
There is NO MAXIMUM trade volume on the Mini. For instance, you can trade 10 contracts, 50 contracts or 150 contracts. This means as you become more seasoned and build up confidence you can slowly increase the size of your positions. The ability to customize the size of the trade enables better risk management.
Ideal for Accounts under $10,000
Amp Futures recommends that all traders with account balances less than $10,000 trade a Mini. This gives you more staying power in the market, and the ability to take advantage of multiple opportunities without over-leveraging your account. If you over-leverage your account you will not give yourself room for error. Even if you are correct on the direction of the market, minor fluctuations can generate a margin call and liquidate a good position.
Take a Mini Challenge!
New accounts can be up and running in as little as one business day (subject to method of funding). Convenient Funding options are:
- Bank Wire (USD only)
- Paper Check
Opening an Account is Quick and Easy!
