Greg will share his experience trading the ES in this live online event designed for Australian-based traders looking to begin trading the US futures markets. CME Group, Dorman Trading and Mirus Futures are each dedicated to providing support and resources to assist traders directly in Australia.

Some consider the ES to be one of the fairest markets to trade because the spread, the difference between the bid and ask, is almost always the smallest increment possible (1 tick), due to the contract’s high volume and liquidity. Combined with low fees to enter and exit the market, it is little wonder the E-mini S&P 500 is the world’s favorite future contract.

Topics to be reviewed in this session include:

  • The E-mini S&P 500 future (ES) explained
  • How to turn your trading plan into computer code via NinjaTrader
  • How to backtest on years of ES data in seconds
  • Optimize on the ES without shaping
  • Stress test your trading idea
  • Quirky ways to use normal indicators on hourly ES charts
