Other Important Issues

In addition to the points just raised, a number of important issues warrant attention from all aspiring

futures traders, regardless of their eventual orientation, system, or trading methodology.

Trade Alone or With a Partner?

There are pros and cons to each alternative.  If you trade alone, there will be no one to help you with

your work (unless you hire employees) and there will be no one who can trade for you in your

absence.  Furthermore, there will be no one with whom you can discuss various markets, indicators,

techniques and trades.

To those individuals who need this type of assistance, a partner or well-trained assistant might be

desirable.  However, before you make such decisions consider the potential negatives of having a

partner.
