First of all, the simulated trading of futures is really limited, mainly to learn the basic trading rules and software operation methods of futures. It is suggested that in the initial stage, we should first understand and learn the basic futures trading rules, understand the rules formulated by the exchange, and have a basic understanding of futures varieties or main active varieties.
After that, I will choose software to simulate trading, learn how to open positions, set up stop-loss conditions and other basic operations. If you plan to focus on short-term operation in the later stage, you can also learn some technical indicators at the same time in the basic learning stage, which will help you judge the market in the later stage.
It is suggested that you can have a simulation disk for one or two months in the early stage, so that you can be better familiar with the manipulation of the futures market. Generally, Mandarin simulation will be selected for the simulation panel, but there will be a delay in Mandarin simulation. You can also try flushing. It is estimated that there will be a charge. (Mandarin seems to be the same. Therefore, the best way is to find an account manager, open a futures account, make a simulation disk in the early stage, and be familiar with: how to open a position, how to set a stop loss and take profit, and how to proceed.
When you know the basic trading rules and software operation methods and the winning rate of simulated trading reaches 80%, you can consider entering the market. However, because the simulated transaction uses counterfeit money and the real transaction uses real money, it will have a great impact on the trader's mentality. After all, the lost money is their hard-earned money, which makes everyone uncomfortable. Therefore, it is suggested to read more psychological books before preparing to enter the futures market, maintain a good attitude, and only stay in the futures market for a long time.
Finally, simulated trading is only used to familiarize yourself with the rules. When you are familiar with it, you don't need to do simulation. Because no amount of simulation will change much, trading is actually not difficult and human nature is rare, but simulation just overcomes the weakness of human nature, so it is easy for many people to make money by playing the simulation disk, but when it comes to the firm offer, it will be a mess. Because human nature needs firm offer or practice, it can only be achieved by constantly summing up experience and learning. Actual combat is a hundred times better than simulation! !
