Learn how single stock futures (SSFs) let traders gain exposure to individual stocks with leverage, extended hours, and flexible long or short positions. Andrew from the NinjaTrader team shares three single stock futures trading strategies: directional trading, hedging, and pairs trading. Unlike traditional stock trading, single stock futures let traders take positions on companies like Nvidia, Apple, and Tesla without buying the underlying shares. With nearly 24-hour market access, traders can react to earnings announcements, market news, and price movements outside regular hours. You’ll also learn about position sizing, leverage, stop-loss placement, and risk management, as well as how NinjaTrader’s advanced charting, Order Flow+, ATM strategies, and simulated trading tools support your approach. -------------------- This content is provided by NinjaTrader, LLC for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer, solicitation, or investment advice.
