Which is more risky, spot or futures?
Of course, the spot risk is high, and many spot transactions are loan funds. If it falls and the spot can't be sold, the bank loan will have to pay interest, otherwise it will be bankrupt in debt. Futures can pay the deposit at most, and you can close your position at any time if you make a mistake. There is no such thing as not selling. And futures can be easily shorted. Spot traders earn the price difference, which is relatively stable in the period of economic stability, while futures are completely a game between macroeconomics and specific commodity trends, and sometimes it is easy to judge and grasp.
