Futures trading is a high-energy environment. Futures trade just like Stocks - they have unlimited profits as well as unlimited losses. And just like Stocks, they don't have any Greeks other than Deltas (Did you know Stocks had a Delta). Futures trading is generally a more leveraged environment than Stocks, and also trade by Tick sizes and Tick values. We discuss Futures Trading in detail, and also put on a couple of Futures trades on the S&P E-mini Futures, trading under the symbol /ES.
