For example, if you watch too much in March, the price of a stock will soar, but if you want to earn more (if you are sure enough), you can open a futures contract. Suppose the initial deposit is 10% and the maintenance deposit is 6%, and you have 10000 yuan in hand. Then you can use this 1 10,000 yuan to open a110,000 yuan stock futures on the futures exchange. The maintenance margin of 65,438+10,000 yuan corn futures is 6,000 yuan, and the stock of the Company is 1000 yuan per share (the buyer must buy at least 100 shares before trading). If the price of this stock falls by 20% in the middle, that is to say, you lose 20* 100 yuan, that is, 2,000 yuan, then the futures exchange will transfer your 2,000 yuan deposit to your counterparty, that is, your deposit is only 8,000 yuan, and then this stock loses money again and becomes 950 yuan's stock, and you lose 30 *1000. Then your deposit was transferred to 3000, leaving only 5000. As we said before, the maintenance deposit is 6000 yuan. If it is lower than this value, you should immediately make up the initial deposit 10000 yuan, that is, you should immediately make up 5000 yuan to make the deposit reach 10000 yuan again.
3. At this time, if you are disheartened about this stock, you can quit the game directly with the current margin amount and accept the fact that you have lost 5000 yuan without paying the margin. If you still believe that the stock will rebound, then you can pay a deposit of 5000 yuan.

Futures, whose English name is Future, 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 futures market, and investors can invest or speculate in futures.
