Futures account is the behavior of investors to open futures accounts and capital accounts. The CSRC has no explicit provisions on the lower limit of the opening capital of futures investors, and the opening capital varies with the size of futures companies and trading methods.

Information and conditions required for futures accounts:

1, original People's Republic of China (PRC) ID card (it must be a second-generation ID card and at least 18 years old).

2. Bank transfer bank (ICBC, ABC, BOC, CCB and BOCOM open bank transfer business)

Second, the hard conditions of stock index futures account include: If you want to do stock index futures, in addition to the above two,

You must also have at least 65,438+00 trading days and more than 20 simulated trading experiences in stock index futures, or have more than 65,438+00 trading records in commodity futures in the last three years, with an account opening capital of not less than 500,000 yuan; It is suggested to do commodity futures first, in order to be familiar with the futures market.

Futures account needs funds:

There is no capital limit for futures accounts, and the minimum margin for futures accounts is generally the exchange margin ratio plus 2%. With a large amount of funds, you can control risks and enjoy the margin ratio of the exchange.

At present, the CSRC does not clearly stipulate the minimum margin for futures accounts of futures investors, and it is up to each company to decide.

The demand for funds in futures accounts publicized by general futures companies is generally 654.38+10,000 yuan. However, in practice, with the different scale of futures companies and different trading methods, the requirements of each company for account opening funds have certain floating space.

For online transactions, an account deposit generally only needs 50,000 yuan; For another example, in order to attract customers, the minimum capital requirement of a smaller company is only 20,000 yuan.

In addition, with the gradual increase of bank-securities transfer and futures transfer business, customers can freely transfer funds between bank accounts, securities accounts and futures accounts, thus basically eliminating the threshold for opening funds.

In addition, when the available balance of the deposit after withdrawal is lower than the opening fund, futures trading can continue, and small funds can also invest in futures.
