Lesson 2 — Instruments Traded in the Financial Markets

A trader should not only understand that markets exist. A trader should also know what is actually traded inside them. Different instruments behave differently, carry different risks, respond to different drivers, and suit different trading styles. If you do not understand the products themselves, market participation remains shallow.
