What do you mean by selling futures?
Futures selling means that investors sell futures contracts that they don't hold in the form of short selling in the futures trading market. This operation requires opening a short position on the exchange. With the help of the fluctuation of futures market price, the seller tried to make a profit in the bear market. When the market price falls, the seller repurchases the corresponding contract to realize the price difference income compared with the short-selling price.

The risk of selling is greater than buying, because when the market price rises, the seller may buy back the futures contract at a higher price, thus bearing greater losses. In addition, the collateral for selling contracts will also change with market fluctuations. Therefore, investors should have certain market analysis ability and strictly control risks.

Selling also needs to meet the conditions stipulated by the exchange, such as margin and handling fee. In the process of operation, we should always pay attention to the changes in the market and adjust the positions and risk control strategies in time. For investors who want to sell in the futures market, they need to have relevant market knowledge and risk control ability to improve the success rate of investment.
