For some retail investors, the capital threshold is an important consideration in choosing varieties. There are many retail investors in the market who are constrained by financial factors and choose relatively cheap products.

Futures trading is margin trading, which combines margin and volume. Strong wheat and corn are two cheaper and more active varieties.

At present, the prices of corn and strong wheat are all around 2400 yuan/ton, and each trading unit is 10 ton. The benchmark margin ratio stipulated by the exchange is 5% and 6%, and the reference margin of futures companies is 8% and 10%, that is, the margin to be paid for each transaction is not higher than 2400 yuan.

Therefore, for stable investors with positions ranging from 20% to 30%, the minimum trading threshold for them to enter the futures market is about 8,000 yuan ~ 1.2 million yuan; For some radical investors whose positions are 50%~ 100%, the entry threshold is 2400 ~4800 yuan.
