The master account is an account opened in Hong Kong Futures Company, which can be used for proprietary trading, and can also be used for docking asset management software to develop business suitable for you through API interface. All orders are reflected in the main account, and the sub-account can judge the regularity and security by querying the main account for the settlement documents (delivery documents) sent by the futures company every other day.

There are generally two ways to open a futures account. The first way is to open an account with the Hong Kong Futures Company. Its advantages are: safe funds and low handling fee. Disadvantages: high margin, inconvenient access to funds, need Hong Kong card, etc. There is also a platform in China where fund raisers open natural person accounts in futures companies and set up sub-accounts through asset management systems to provide trading channel services to individuals.

At present, most of the international futures platforms on the market carry out investment promotion business in the form of master accounts, and some of them are fake platforms operating in the name of well-known futures companies, so we should pay attention to distinguish them.
