(1) Reserve funds should be used for investment. This is the first prerequisite for any investment. Investment can't use the money of life, production and operation, and can't affect the quality of daily life and operation, but use personal spare time and special surplus funds of enterprises. As long as you have the ability to invest, you can keep a peaceful mind, and a peaceful mind is often conducive to successful transactions. ?
(2) Fully understand futures contracts. Before selling or buying futures contracts, we should conduct a comprehensive and careful study on their types, quantities and prices. Don't be greedy in buying and selling contracts, even experienced traders can hardly trade more than three different types of futures contracts at the same time. When choosing a contract, you should choose the main contract with the largest turnover. In the process of futures trading, it should be comprehensively applied through basic analysis or technical analysis combined with the operating characteristics of futures prices. ?
(3) Make a trading plan. Numerous experiences and lessons show that it is impossible to stand on the futures market for a long time without a clear trading plan. A trading plan is a blueprint for success. Making a trading plan can force traders to consider some problems that may be missed; Traders can know what kind of market environment they are in, what kind of trading direction they will take, how to do right, how to do wrong, how to do high, how to do low, and when to change their trading plans to cope with the changing market environment; Traders can choose a trading method that suits their own characteristics, and only the correct method can make a profit. The market is unpredictable, and countermeasures are better than predictions. ?
(four) determine the profit and loss limit. The profit-risk ratio of entering the market should reach 3: 1. In every operation, investors should predict the possible minimum profit target and maximum loss limit. If it is above 3: 1, they will enter the arena, otherwise they will give up. ?
(V) Determine the invested venture capital. First, diversify the direction of capital investment, rather than focusing on a certain transaction. Second, the position should be limited to the amount that you can control completely, otherwise it will be difficult to control too many positions. Third, we should also set aside some funds for possible new trading opportunities. Successful futures investors have come to the experience that only when the initial position is proved to be correct can additional investment transactions be made, and the additional investment amount should be lower than the initial investment amount. Trading positions should be hedged according to the original trading plan to prevent greed. However, the market is changeable, and investors should make appropriate adjustments according to the actual changes in market conditions, maintain flexibility, act according to plans, and not stick to rules. The desire for profit in a transaction mainly depends on the experience and personal preference of investors. Successful trading is ultimately influenced by personal emotions, objective reality, analytical methods and trading plans. ?
