FUTURES Magazine: worth the time?

Discussion in 'Educational Resources' started by short&naked, Nov 19, 2013.

  1. I have been receiving FUTURES magazine for a few months now and can't help wondering if there is anything worthwhile to be gleaned from it. It almost seems to me that the articles in it are kept intentionally vague and that the purpose it just to sell advertisements for brokers, seminars, etc. Am I wrong?
     
  2. Stocks and Commodities is the only one I consider worth reading.
     
  3. I like Futures magazine. Some legit things in there from time to time.
    Have subscribed for years.


    BTW... I gave up on S & C long ago.
     
  4. I receive Futures magazine and I honestly believe that it's cool for casual reading purposes. But if you're looking for anything that will help your trading, you probably won't find it.

    S and C is total crap guys. You guys need to start reading stuff of a little higher intellectual caliber.

    Here are three outstanding magazines that will increase your IQ 5 pts a month if you read and absorb them cover to cover.

    The Technical side:

    The business side:

    And the macro side:

    Stop reading magazines that that are half filled with cartoons and moving avg crossover trading systems up the wazoo and start reading what the professionals read. If only to have a half way intelligent conversation if the opportunity presents itself.
