Futures is a two-way transaction. You can buy up and sell down to make money. Specifically, there are bulls (bullish) and bears (bearish). Buy low and sell high if you do too much. Buy first, sell high and buy low. You sell first, you earn the difference.

Because futures liquidation is to close the position by doing the opposite transaction, short sellers will become long sellers after selling their positions (the effect of long positions on prices is equal to short positions), while short sellers are short sellers, who need to buy positions to close their positions and then become long sellers. Identity always changes with personal behavior.

Characteristics of futures trading:

bidirectional

One of the biggest differences between futures trading and stock market is that futures can be traded in both directions, and futures can be long or short. When the price rises, you can buy low and sell high, and when the price falls, you can sell high and buy low. Going long can make money, and shorting can also make money, so there is no bear market in futures. In a bear market, the stock market will be suppressed, while the futures market will remain unchanged and opportunities will still exist. )

low cost

Futures trading countries do not levy stamp duty and other taxes, and the only cost is the transaction fee. The procedures of the three domestic exchanges are about two ten thousandths or three ten thousandths, plus the additional fees of brokers, and the unilateral handling fee is less than one thousandth of the transaction amount. Low cost is the guarantee of success.

lever action

Leverage principle is the charm of futures investment. Futures market transactions do not need to pay all the funds, and domestic futures transactions only need to pay 5% margin to obtain future trading rights. Due to the use of margin, the original market has been enlarged ten times.

Double the opportunity

Futures is a "T+0" transaction, which makes your capital use to the extreme. After grasping the trend, you can close your position at any time. (Convenient access can increase the security of investment)

Greater than negative market

Futures is a zero-sum market, and the futures market itself does not create profits. In a certain period of time, regardless of the transaction costs of capital entry and exit, the total amount of funds in the futures market remains unchanged, and the profits of market participants come from the losses of another trader.
