After opening an account in a futures company, do I need to use the trading software designated by the company?
No, because different companies have different trading gateways. The trading mode of China Futures is that your order is sent to the server of the futures company where you open an account, and then the server of the futures company sends your order to the server of the exchange for matchmaking. If you want to use Mandarin, you must ask your futures company if it has any trading software in Mandarin. If so, go to the official website where you open an account and download this Mandarin version. Usually you will follow a company before or after the name, such as the trading version of Wenhua Wisdom of XX Futures Company.
