Futures leverage can be up to 50 times. The leverage of each futures product is different. For example, the margin rate of commodity futures is generally 8%- 15%, which is equivalent to 6- 15 times of leverage. In financial futures, the leverage of stock index futures is 5 times, that of treasury bonds futures is 50 times, and that of crude oil futures is 20 times.

Is the futures loss a loss margin?

Yes, the loss of futures is the deposit. If the loss of futures exceeds the margin, it is a breach of contract. At present, according to the domestic futures trading system, it only exists in the case of short-term gap, continuous daily limit or daily limit in major markets after the holiday, and this extreme market rarely appears.

Futures are margin transactions, and losses are deducted from the margin. If the losses are not equal, you need to increase the deposit. If it is not replenished in time, the deposit will be forced to settle. If this is not enough for the futures company, it must be paid back, otherwise it may owe the futures company money.
