Arthur Ullrich – Day Trading The S&P 500 Futures Contract Manual

Any amount of Futures trading involves significant risks. No assurance can be given that a trader/investor will realize a profit on its account or that they will not lose some or all of its account equity. In addition, a trader/investor will be subject to margin calls in the event that the assets of their account on deposit with an FCM (Futures Commission ebs House) are insufficient to satisfy margin requirements.
Because of the nature of the trading activities, the results of trading activities may fluctuate from month to month and from period to period. Accordingly, all traders/investors should understand that the results of a particular period will not necessarily be indicative of results in future periods.
