Investment Vehicles You Will See Traded

In Day Trading and Swing Trading you will see trades in stocks, options, ETF's and futures.

Stock Trading:
A type of security that signifies ownership in a corporation and represents a claim of part of the corporation's assets and earnings.

Option Trading:
A financial derivative that represents a contract sold by one party (option writer) to another party (option holder). The contract offers the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy (call) or sell (put) a security or other financial asset at an agreed-upon price (the strike price) during a certain period of time or on a specific date (exercise date).

ETF's:
An exchange-traded fund (or ETF) is an investment vehicle traded on stock exchanges, much like stocks or bonds. An ETF holds assets such as stocks or bonds and trades at approximately the same price as the net asset value of its underlying assets over the course of the trading day. Most ETFs track an index.

Futures Trading:
A futures contract is financial derivative that "derives" its value from the price movement of another instrument. In other words, the price of the derivative is not a function of any inherent value, but rather of changes in the value of whatever instrument the derivative is tracking. For example, the value of a derivative linked to the S&P 500 is a function of price movements in the S&P 500 cash. This is a strategy of trading various futures contracts by both going long or short which gives one the ability to gain more leverage and use less buying power. Most of the futures Brian trades can be day traded as well by using ETF's.
