What Makes Trading Commodities Futures Risky? By: Gerald Greene | - Commodities futures trading is considered a mighty risky enterprise by most folks. And they are right if you examine the way most traders trade. Most folks trade in a way that almost insures losses.

I've got good news for you. If you've been struggling to get the results from your trading that you expected, then you've probably dismissed the most important thing, and it's such a common mistake that struggling traders make and the pros don't: treating your trading as a business you own, not simply something you do.
If it's so simple, then What does that actually mean?
Most traders have an above average IQ, enjoy above average lifestyles, and have more money than most.
Being a trader shows that youve achieved a respectable level of success in your life. You cant even think about becoming a trader without having the capital to fund an account. That doesnt happen by chance. Youve overcome many of the challenges that the average person just never seems to beat.
