Futures losses will be forced to close positions.
Generally speaking, when the position risk of futures is higher than 100% or the margin is lower than the minimum standard, investors need to add margin, and if they don't add it, they will be forced to close their positions, so they will not close their positions according to losses. For example, the margin rate of long and short positions of SSE 50 stock index futures is 10%, and the margin rate of CSI 500 long and short positions is 15%. If investors buy SSE 50 stock index futures, the margin below 10% will be closed.

Forced liquidation requires the following conditions:

1, the customer's trading margin is insufficient, which has exceeded the risk control bottom line, and the market continues to develop in the direction of unfavorable positions. This is the basic premise for futures companies to implement compulsory liquidation in order to protect their own interests and prevent losses from expanding.

2. Correctly fulfilling the obligation to notify additional margin is a necessary procedure for futures companies to carry out compulsory liquidation.

3. The time and amount of additional margin should be reasonable.

First, the main characteristics of futures

1. The terms and conditions of a futures contract, such as commodity variety, trading unit, contract month, margin, quantity, quality, grade, delivery time and delivery place, are established and standardized, and the only variable is price. The standards of futures contracts are usually designed by futures exchanges and listed by national regulatory agencies.

2. The futures contract is concluded under the organization of the futures exchange and has legal effect, and the price is generated by public bidding in the trading hall of the exchange; Most foreign countries adopt public bidding, while our country adopts computer trading.

Second, the characteristics of futures trading

1, bidirectional

One of the biggest differences between futures trading and stock market is that futures can be traded in both directions, and futures can be long or short. When the price rises, you can buy low and sell high, and when the price falls, you can sell high and buy low. Going long can make money, and shorting can also make money, so there is no bear market in futures.

2, the cost is low

Futures trading countries do not levy stamp duty and other taxes, and the only cost is the transaction fee. The procedures of the three domestic exchanges are about two ten thousandths or three ten thousandths, plus the additional fees of brokers, and the unilateral handling fee is less than one thousandth of the transaction amount.

3. Leverage

Leverage principle is the charm of futures investment. Futures market transactions do not need to pay all the funds, and domestic futures transactions only need to pay 5% margin to obtain future trading rights. Due to the use of margin, the original market has been enlarged ten times. Assuming that the daily limit of copper price closes on a certain day (the daily limit in futures is only 3% of the settlement price of the previous trading day), the operation is correct. The return on capital is as high as 60%(3%÷5%), which is six times the daily limit of the stock market.

Step 4 double the chance

Futures is a "T+0" transaction, which makes your capital use to the extreme. After grasping the trend, you can close your position at any time. (Convenient access can increase the security of investment)

5, greater than the negative market

Futures is a zero-sum market, and the futures market itself does not create profits. In a certain period of time, regardless of the transaction costs of capital entry and exit, the total amount of funds in the futures market remains unchanged, and the profits of market participants come from the losses of another trader. The stock market has entered a bear market, the market price has shrunk dramatically, the dividends are meager, the state and enterprises absorb funds, and there is no short-selling mechanism. The total amount of funds in the stock market will show negative growth for a period of time, and the total profit is less than the loss. (Zero is always greater than a negative number)
