Futures Trading
As you begin your journey as a trader, one of the most basic things you need to know is the different types of orders and when they are appropriate.
In this post I am going to talk about connecting our brand new AMP Futures account to CQG data feed inside Sierra Chart. Also how to use the DOM (Depth of Market) to place orders in Sierra Chart.
The brokerage account that I use is with AMP Futures. I have a lot of reasons why I love AMP besides their awesome customer service, which include: no monthly inactivity fees, $500 account minimum and $400 day trading margins for minis, $100 account minimum and $40 day trading margins for micros, extremely low commissions (round trip ~$4 for minis and ~$0.70 per contract)., CQG data feed, and free trading platforms to connect data feed. Let's go through the steps in detail for how to open up a brokerage account with AMP. You can also view the video if you prefer learning in that format.
