No. Buy a house and some stocks in growth sectors.

  No - You're wrong and the person you're replying to is right. Futures are how you multiply your money with relatively low risk. Stocks are how you get 5% returns amortized YOY if you're lucky

    Why is there all this free money sitting in the futures market?
    • saiya-jin 7y ago
      Yeah I wonder why on earth is any professional trader doing anything else rather than methods described. Those amateurs, right? Money sitting there for free... give me a break. I don't need to be a finance expert to know when somebody sells a snake oil - things that sound too good to be true most often are.

        So then would it help to scale it or not?

  Being long-only is great when everything is going up. As for me, I like to hedge out the market and sector movements by being long/short (adjusted for beta) within a given sector. I only make money if my long outperforms my short. Trump tweets and other companies' earnings in the sector do not affect my P/L.
