If it is personal speculation, don't choose futures. As a risk point of view, as long as there is risk in investment, it depends on how to control the risk. The so-called risk is uncontrollable. If you can control your own capital investment and loss plan, there will be no so-called risk.
Reminder: both futures and foreign exchange have great risks, and there is no difference in size, which is only related to the technology and funds when investors operate. In terms of leverage, the leverage of futures is small, but it needs more funds, while the leverage of foreign exchange is large, which needs less funds, but the risks and benefits are great. Therefore, investors must be fully prepared, learn more and simulate more before participating.
