When investing, many people know that they need to know something about the transaction, but they often ignore their own understanding. It is necessary to strengthen our understanding of ourselves. Because everyone is an independent individual, only by knowing yourself well enough can we find a suitable trading method in this market and reduce the influence of our weaknesses on trading.
Keep learning:
Some people always feel that they have mastered one or two feasible technical analysis methods when investing. But in the market, the time you spend on market analysis far exceeds the time you spend placing orders and watching the market. This shows that it is very important in the learning process of technical analysis. We can't guarantee that we will only win or not lose. Therefore, only by constantly strengthening their own technical level will they gain greater benefits.
Don't follow the trend or blindly follow:
Some investors just like to blindly follow the trend, listen to gossip, or blindly follow the advice of some investment experts. You know, even the best analyst is sure when he is not sure about the market. We can listen to the teacher's advice, but we should make our own sober judgment. If the market is not clear enough, we would rather give up the list than blindly enter the market, and we must have our own opinions, so that we can calmly analyze and invest rationally.
Keep peace of mind:
In the futures trading market, winning or losing is common. Paying too much attention to the profit and loss of an investment will make you lose your original judgment on the investment. Try to keep a calm mind, do what you should do, and don't regret or let go of the result.
Futures, whose English name is futures, is completely different from spot. Spot is actually a tradable commodity. Futures are mainly not commodities, but standardized tradable contracts based on some popular products such as cotton, soybeans and oil and financial assets such as stocks and bonds. Therefore, the subject matter can be commodities (such as gold, crude oil and agricultural products) or financial instruments.
The delivery date of futures can be one week later, one month later, three months later or even one year later.
A contract or agreement to buy or sell futures is called a futures contract. The place where futures are bought and sold is called the futures market. Investors can invest or speculate in futures.
Development:
The earliest futures market in history was Japan in the edo shogunate era. Because the price of rice at that time had a great influence on economic and military activities, rice merchants decided to buy and sell rice in stock according to the output of rice and the market's expectation of rice.
In the1970s, Chicago Mercantile Exchange and CBOT innovated many futures products, and vigorously developed many financial futures products, making financial futures the mainstream of the futures market. In the1980s, the Chicago Stock Exchange began to develop electronic trading platforms. At the end of 1990' s, there was a trend of mergers and acquisitions in various countries' exchanges.
In ancient China, there was a commodity credit and forward contract system composed of grain depot and grain market. During the Republic of China, there were many futures exchanges in China and Shanghai, and the market was once crazy. The puppet Manchukuo government also set up futures exchanges in Dalian, Yingkou, Fengtian and other northeast 15 cities, mainly engaged in soybean, bean cake and soybean oil futures trade. 1949 after the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), the futures exchange disappeared in Chinese mainland for decades. By 1992, Zhengzhou established a futures exchange, which set off another wave of futures speculation, and various provinces and cities blossomed everywhere. At most, more than 50 futures exchanges opened at the same time, exceeding the sum of futures exchanges in other countries in the world. On 1994 and 1998, China the State Council strengthened supervision twice, suspended some futures products and ordered some exchanges to stop business. Since 1998, there are only three legal commodity futures exchanges in Chinese mainland: Shanghai Futures Exchange, Dalian Futures Exchange and Zhengzhou Futures Exchange. The former deals in energy and metal commodity futures, while the latter two deal in agricultural products futures. On September 8, 2006, China Financial Futures Exchange was established in Shanghai, and the first product launched was the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 stock index futures.
