Opening a trading account: investors need to open a trading account in a futures exchange or a commission agent, and submit relevant identification and proof of funds.
Choose the right futures varieties: according to your investment objectives and risk tolerance, choose the futures varieties that suit you. Futures include commodity futures, financial futures and stock index futures.
Order trading: investors can submit the entrustment of buying or selling contracts through the electronic trading platform or telephone entrustment provided by the exchange. The quantity and price of sales contracts in transactions are standardized.
Performance or liquidation: When the contract expires, the trader can choose performance or liquidation. If the trader chooses to perform the contract, he needs to buy or sell the underlying assets at the agreed price. If the trader chooses to close the position, he needs to reverse the transaction and close the position before the contract expires.
Futures trading has certain risks, and traders need to trade under the premise of controllable risks. At the same time, the trading rules and operation methods of different futures exchanges may be different.
