Day Trading Futures: Emini S&P

Emini S&P (ES)

While day trading futures, the Emini S&P Futures trades on the CME until 4:15 p.m., then the Emini S&P Futures reopens 15 minutes later at 4:30 p.m. to start the next session. There is also a shutdown period from 5:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. The Emini S&P Futures contract months are March (H), June (M), September (U) and December (Z). The Emini S&P Futures moves in increments of 0.25 points, which equals $12.50 per contract or $50 for a full 1 point move. A 3 point move in the Emini S&P Futures using 1 contract would equal $150. A trader needs around $2,000 in their account to be able to trade 1 ES contract. Although this contract trades nearly 24 hours, I usually only focus on it during the regular cash market session from 9:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.

Quotes on TradeStation for 2005 Emini S&P contracts: ESH05, ESM05, ESU05, ESZ05. @ES is the continuous symbol. Quotes on eSignal for 2005 Emini S&P contracts: ES H5, ES M5, ES U5, ES Z5. ES #F is the continuous symbol.

"As I was listening to one of your videos, one of my 13 yr old twin girls walked by my desk. As she put the earbuds in from her mp3 she inquired in a teenager way, "You're listening to that annoying man again?" I replied, "Honey that man is the sound of money and paid for your mp3, so deal with it!"

Thank you for your videos- quality and content is excellent- you've recently raised your game by introducing the forex and currency futures. Superb. I've personally gained so much knowledge from the site which is beginning to reflect in an improving equity curve. Excellent work!

I can't tell you how much I've learned since becoming a TTM member. The nightly videos and live trading room have been excellent teaching tools for me as a beginner trader.
