Thanks for passing it along, Eli! It’s hard to know if day trading futures will be the best fit for him or his goals but hopefully this article at least gives a bit of perspective on the process involved in doing this full time.

Thanks, Karl. The path to going pro is no doubt a difficult one and can take a while. If you’re taking the self directed approach you will still reach your goal but there will likely be a few more ups and downs. My best advice is if you know a good trading professional then see if they can mentor you – it will take months/years off the learning curve.
