How to hedge risks through futures
Hedge. For production and operation enterprises, their own management system and technological innovation are on the one hand, but contrary to expectations, the price changes. The rise and fall of prices will devour all efforts. For the so-called production and operation enterprises, the price stability of raw materials can be ensured by futures hedging, and the price of their products can be protected from external interference by hedging and selling. Hedging of futures and stock risks. When buying stocks, people can only be eager to be bullish. In the case of falling prices, there is nothing they can do except close their positions. However, through the trading of stock index futures, when you buy stocks, when you don't want to close your position and fall, you can hedge the risk of stocks in the general trend by shorting stock index futures. Risk hedging in foreign exchange transactions.

In the process of foreign exchange transactions, the US dollar is most closely related to gold and oil, and of course other commodities are also related. In the process of appreciation of the US dollar, in order to avoid related risks, we can establish gold positions in futures, which can avoid related risks. Risk hedging in spot trading.

This is similar to hedging, but not exactly similar, because hedging needs entity management after all. Now there are many spot trading platforms and many investors. In fact, most spot trading platforms are futures trading. Therefore, when trading on the spot trading platform, you can't grasp it yourself. You can avoid some risks by establishing a reverse position in the futures market. Risk avoidance in futures trading. The risk of futures trading is also great, and futures have long been separated from the main function of avoiding risks. With the development of modern financial industry, futures investment or speculation has its own circumvention method, that is, options. Although it is still a new thing in China, I believe everyone will hear about it soon. For personal investment behavior, the function of futures to avoid risks involves all aspects, in a word: there is nothing you can't think of, and nothing you can't do. As an investor, we should first start with its function and combine with other investments to find the answer well. If the amount of funds is large, and the stock position is the main position, when there is a risk of market crash, you can consider buying short stock index futures to hedge the risk. For example, if the main position is the SSE 50 constituent stocks, you can buy the 50 short contracts of the month. Once the 50 index really falls, although the stock position will lose money, the short contract is profitable, so the loss can be reduced.
