>I am new to the list... and wondering if there is anyone who day trades the
S&P futures for a living.  I am interested in talking about the pro's and
con's of day trading as a means of employment.  Any takers?

you actually have a better chance to win a lottery, than to become a long
term year after year profitable daytrader of any commodity.   when you throw
in the idea of doing this on the sp market your odds have just jumped from
winning the lottery to winning the lottery every week for 10 years strait.
the mere fact that you have likened daytrading the sp to a means of
employment plots a bleak future for you.   i would suggest that the best
thing you can do is to limit yourself to a specific amount of money to
loose.   then take the rest of the money and give it to a trustee that will
not allow you to have it once you have blown that amount.
