Why Emini Over Equities

[safvan]

Hi

I have seen traders focusing more on E-mini futures as it seems to offer the perfect blend of leverage and regulation compared to equities and FX.

What is your personal choice?

I trade equities but there is just too much work finding new setups of stocks every week that has good spreads and is ready for long/short.

Any insights would be welcome.

Those who work the hardest normally get the best results. Those who want it easy normally get sub-standard results, at best.......

I trade the ES and I invest in equities. I agree with anley, there is no such thing as 'too much work'.
