What is the risk of stock index futures?
The risk of stock index is very high, because there are often gaps in the market. Moreover, the 300 yuan of the stock index fluctuates around 50 points a day, that is to say, the profit and loss of 1 hand is around 15000, and once it is empty again the next day, it will be 45000. If you do more, the fluctuation of account funds will be even greater. Foreign exchange is traded in the same way as the stock index, but it can be traded for nearly 24 hours every day, and there are more trading opportunities. However, the leverage of foreign exchange platforms is relatively high, generally between 100-500 times. The greater the leverage, the greater the risk.

You can hold a heavy position at will, and the risk of account explosion in the later period is relatively high. Moreover, the funds are all transferred overseas, so it is difficult to solve the problem in the later stage, and even the funds cannot be taken out. I suggest you operate domestic futures.

1. Using the principle that the futures market and the spot market have the same price trend, colleagues trade in the two markets, and use the income generated in one market to make up for the loss in the other market, thus locking in the production profit and production cost. This is an enterprise's use of the futures market for hedging.

2. Through futures trading, the hedger can transfer the risk of price fluctuation in the spot market to speculators seeking high-risk profits.

3. The futures market adopts "fair, just and open" centralized bidding transactions to generate futures prices that can reflect the future market supply and demand. Under the influence of mature futures market, futures companies often use futures prices as quotations for spot transactions.

The role of futures in microeconomics;

1. Lock the production cost and realize the expected profit.

2. Use futures price signals to organize spot production.

3. The futures market should expand spot sales and procurement channels.

4. Futures market urges enterprises to pay attention to product quality.

The importance of futures is mainly reflected in two aspects. The first is to find the price, because in the futures market, buyers and sellers reach an agreement on the expectation of future prices through early transactions, which integrates the supply and demand of future commodities in the market and improves the efficiency of resource allocation;

The second function is to provide enterprises with means to avoid risks. For example, if an enterprise wants to sell a batch of products in the future, but according to the company's forecast, the future commodity prices will fall for various reasons, resulting in a decline in income, then the enterprise can choose to sell futures at a higher price than expected to achieve the purpose of preserving the value of future commodities.

Futures are mainly not commodities, but standardized tradable contracts with some bulk products such as cotton, soybeans and oil and financial assets such as stocks and bonds as the targets. So this theme can be commodities (such as gold, crude oil, agricultural products) or the role of financial instrument futures: the "inflation" of savings preservation is almost an inevitable long-term trend, and the fundamental reason is that money is now printed on paper.
