    where do you trade ES? I have Schwab and TD accounts only

    I assume Schwab would have

    I assume Schwab would have futures, but I don't know. Most brokerages give the option, but I don't know abut Schawb.  IB, Etrade, Tradestation, tons of brokers.  Futures are not for everyone so study what their are and their leverage. I also think the MES micro ES contract is probably a good one for newbies because it allows you to start very small

    thanks! ill look into seeing

    thanks! ill look into seeing what options they have on the site, I didn't even know!  Is there a requirement for a balance like daytrading?

    vinylchild, you can trade ES

    vinylchild, you can trade ES Futures on TD (ThinkorSwim)- symbols:  /ES, /MES (micro ES). You have to apply for a Futures Account to trade them but you can still chart them without the Futures Acct
