Personal advice:
One thing you need to understand: can you guarantee that your judgment is correct?
Although we all want to bargain-hunting when the futures price is the highest, we can get a lot of excess returns. But no one in this market can accurately judge the market, and no one can win in the futures market. To some extent, the high-point bargain-hunting you mentioned is only a theoretical imagination, which can't be realized in real life. If a person tells you when you can bargain-hunting, this person 100% is a liar because he doesn't need to tell you this information. If he had this ability, this man would have been the richest man in the world.
Problems to be considered in futures short selling;
1, the bottom of the current futures market does not exist. Whether it is stock futures or gold foreign exchange, there are three kinds of market, namely, rising, falling and overall market. Therefore, the end of the falling market does not mean the beginning of the rising market, but the first to enter the whole market. Is the futures market full now? Obviously not, so I even doubt that those who shout after the vacancy can understand futures and see the market.
2. There are many negative information on the fundamentals. People who pay attention to financial market news should know that the state recently interviewed the leaders of major steel mills and clearly instructed to stabilize prices and curb unreasonable price increases. As soon as this news came out, the spot of major steel mills in the country fell, so I want to know how the current market is rising.
Global inflation has attracted the attention of all countries. At present, the inflation problem in various countries is getting worse. In order to cope with inflation, all countries have adopted policies to reduce inflation and ensure supply. In this environment, the downward trend of commodity prices in the future should be the main theme.
Closing futures means that you think the price of this asset will drop in the future, so you can sell a certain share of the subject matter at the current price, and then buy it back after the price drops, and the difference in the middle is your income.
