The loss of spot customers refers to the loss caused by price fluctuation or market changes when buying or selling spot products. This kind of loss is usually borne by the customer, because the transaction is usually a standard transaction and does not include any maintenance loss. Therefore, when buying and selling spot products, both parties must carefully evaluate the market risk to prevent potential financial losses.

The loss of spot customers is usually different from commodity futures trading. Commodity futures trading usually refers to trading in order to obtain the value of a commodity without any substance or commodity. Unlike spot trading, commodity futures usually involve physical delivery, and the buying and selling prices are determined in advance. Therefore, the losses in commodity futures trading are generally shared by both parties, because transactions are usually standardized contracts.

In order to reduce the risk of the loss of spot customers, both the demand side and the supply side should learn to accurately predict the market trend, obtain the relevant knowledge of the target substance and refer to various market analysis reports. In addition, hedging and other methods can be used to reduce possible losses. In short, the loss of spot customers is a basic concept, and it is very helpful for both parties to understand the relevant risk factors.
