Newbie looking to trade over the weekend!

[Quaeritur]

Looking for possible markets to trade into over the weekend ?

Any suggestions

1. What kind of exchange traded products could I get into for trading over the weekend ?

2. What is the minimum amount required ?

3. What firms do you recommend for brokers ?

I see by your profile you are in the U.K.

Trading on the weekend will not be possible until late sunday evening/night.

Yeah, weekends is your day off, annoyingly. Could go down the poker route, which many traders seem to do. I don't like poker, though.

Oanda will let you do forex trades over the weekend, but there's little liquidity or price movement and the spreads are wide.

why do you want to try to trade at the weekends?

If you're trying to fit trading around another job, you may wish to consider trading the evenings/nights. The Dax/Stoxx are fairly liquid till late evening, and currency futures trade right through the night with reduced depth.

I doubt you'll find anything tradeable enough outside of the working week days.
