How to invest in S&P(standard and poor)?

Question

I want to start investing in the high risk and variations, and i want to know more about the future market, like S&P. But I live outside USA, and i can´t find any good related information in internet, tutorials etc.

The big problem is that i think it can´t be made by the bank account, is that true ?

Answer 1

Do not jump into the futures markets without doing a lot of research, or any markets for that matter.

One good newspaper in English is IBD. If you can't purchase a hard copy where you live, you can read an online version. They will even give you a 2 week free trial. (And no, I have no relationship with IBD.)

Answer 2

1. Open a on line trading platform, like TOS so that you can trade on line and all you need to do is wait until you account had been approved.

2. I think don't jump into future. It is very risky. I would recommend you to trade option like SPY. You lost is limited.

3. I am sure you can buy trading reference at Amazon.com. I am a Asia trader. I found a lot of information at Singapore.
