On the one hand, this objectivity reflects the essence of market risk, that is to say, in any market, there is the possibility of suffering losses due to uncertain factors. On the other hand, the objectivity of futures market risk also comes from the particularity of the internal mechanism of futures trading.

2. Magnification of risk factors

Compared with the risk in the spot market, the risk in the futures market is magnified for the following five reasons:

(1) Compared with spot prices, futures prices fluctuate more frequently.

(2) Futures trading has the characteristics of "small and wide", which is speculative and increases the possibility of risks.

(3) Futures trading is a continuous contract trading activity, and the risk is easy to extend, triggering a chain reaction.

(4) The futures trading volume is large, the risks are concentrated, and the profit and loss range is large.

(5) Futures trading is forward-looking, and there are many uncertainties in the future, which is difficult to predict.

3. The nature of risks and opportunities.

There is the possibility of obtaining high returns in futures trading, that is, high returns and high risks coexist.

4. Relativity of risk assessment

Actual income exists objectively, and the evaluation of expected income varies with different transaction subjects, transaction costs and objective conditions. Therefore, the risk of deviation between expected income and actual income is subjective and relative.

5. Equal risk and loss

For all parties involved in futures trading, the possible losses caused by futures risks are objective and equal.

6. Preventability of risks

The emergence and development of futures market risks have their own operating rules. According to historical data and statistical data, the changing process of futures market is calculated in advance to prevent futures market risks, so as to avoid, disperse and weaken risks.
