When the price of wheat is 2000 yuan per ton, it is estimated that the price of wheat will fall. You signed a (first-class) contract with the buyer in the futures market, for example, you agreed to sell him 10 ton of standard wheat at a price of 2000 yuan per ton at any time within six months. (the value is 2000× 10 = 20000 yuan, calculated in 600 yuan.
Why should a buyer sign a contract with you? Because he's awesome.
When you signed the contract, there was no wheat in your hand. You are observing the market. If the market drops to 1.800 yuan per ton as you wish, you can buy 10 ton of wheat at 1.800 yuan per ton and sell it to the buyer at 2000 yuan per ton. The contract is fulfilled (your performance bond is returned to you). You have earned:
(2000-1800) × 10 = 2000 (yuan) (the handling fee is generally10 yuan, which is ignored).
In practice, you only need to sell a hand of wheat in 2000 and buy a flat at 1800, which is very convenient.
If the price of wheat rises within half a year, you have no chance to buy low-priced wheat to close your position, you will be forced to buy high-priced wheat to close your position (the contract must be closed at the expiration), you will lose money, and the buyer who signed with you will make a profit.
If you close your position at 2200, you will lose money:
(2200-2000)× 10=2000 (yuan)+10 yuan handling fee.
At present, the cheapest futures variety in China is corn, which is about 1.800 yuan per ton, 10 ton per lot, and the contract value is 1.800 yuan. According to the deposit of 10%, you can probably make 1.08 million.

Futures speculation is very similar to the stock market, but there are also obvious differences.
First, large-cap stocks are traded in full, that is, you can only buy as many shares as you have, while the futures system is a margin system, that is, you only need to pay 5% to 10% of the turnover to trade 100%. For example, if an investor has 1 10,000 yuan, he can buy 1000 shares if he buys1000 yuan, and he can clinch a commodity futures contract with110,000 yuan by investing in futures, that is, taking small bets and making big ones.
Second, the two-way trading of stocks is one-way. Only by buying stocks first can you sell them. Futures can be bought or sold first, which is a two-way transaction.
Third, time limit There is no time limit for stock trading. If the quilt cover can be closed for a long time, and the futures must be delivered at maturity, otherwise the exchange will force the liquidation or physical delivery.
4. Profit and loss The actual income of stock investment has two parts, one is the market price difference, the other is the dividend, and the profit and loss of futures investment is the actual profit and loss in market transactions.
5. The futures with huge risks are characterized by high returns and high risks due to the implementation of the margin system, the additional margin system and the restriction of compulsory liquidation at maturity. In a sense, futures can make you rich overnight, or you may be penniless in an instant, so investors should invest carefully.
Futures is T+0 trading, which can be traded several times a day, and the handling fee is lower than that of stocks.
Futures can make money. But it is not easy to make money in futures, because others have to pay and bear the transaction costs.
Futures are risky and need to be cautious when entering the market. I wish you a fortune!
