Do futures trading make money?
Futures trading has the opportunity to make money, but not every investor can make money in the futures market. Investors should pay attention to the following aspects when considering futures investment:
1. Futures trading is leveraged, and you can get higher returns with less capital investment. But it also magnifies the trading risk. The futures market price fluctuates violently and changes rapidly. Investors need to have rich trading experience and good risk management ability.
2. In futures trading, the analysis of market trends is very important. Through the analysis of market fundamentals and technical aspects, we can understand the influence of supply and demand, policy changes and economic indicators on the market. Investors can still seize more opportunities by accurately predicting the ups and downs of the market.
3. The futures market is risky, so investors need to establish reasonable risk control measures. For example, stop loss and take profit should be set, and capital positions and investment leverage should be reasonably controlled. In addition, we should invest rationally according to our own trading strategy, and we should not blindly follow the trend of chasing up and down or emotional trading.
How to choose futures investment varieties?
1. Considering the liquidity and transaction cost, the futures varieties with better liquidity are preferred to ensure the smooth transaction, and the varieties with higher liquidity usually have more trading opportunities.
2. Studying the trading rules of futures contracts, different futures products may have different trading time and transaction costs, and investors need to choose the varieties that suit them according to their own schedules and needs.
3. Pay attention to market risk and policy risk. Different futures products are affected by different market risks and policy risks. Understanding and paying attention to relevant policy changes and market risks is very important for investment decision-making and risk management. For example, agricultural futures may be affected by weather and other factors, and energy futures may be affected by geopolitical factors.
