The method of judging whether a futures platform is formal;

First, query and judge the regularity of futures platforms. Through the website of China Futures Association, you can find the member column of the association, through which you can query and judge whether the futures platform is a regular platform. Enter the name of the futures platform to enter the members of the association for inquiry. If this futures platform is also displayed among the members of the association, it means that it is a formal platform. However, if you can't find this platform, it means that it is an informal platform.

Second, the importance of a formal futures platform.

If investors buy and sell futures on an informal futures platform, it is not only the risk of loss, but also the danger that investors' funds are very unsafe. Informal platforms will run away with money, which has happened before. Therefore, before investors make any investment, the most important task is to identify the legitimacy and regularity of trading platforms, including banks, brokers, trusts, futures, funds and other institutions, whether they are qualified and licensed, and whether they are legal and formal financial institutions.
