Since options provide price insurance and the risk is relatively small, why are there fewer people buying options than buying futures?
It is likely that the option fee is too high, and then the exercise price of the option is higher (call option) or lower (put option), so it is difficult to turn it into a real option profit, and everyone's enthusiasm is not high. Then it may be that the groups involved in option trading can't do it, and the liquidity of options is poor or serious, which often deviates from the actual trend of the target, making people afraid to play. For example, the current national debt futures have a high threshold for participation, few people are qualified to play, and natural hedgers such as banks do not participate at all. There is no option in China now, and it will definitely come out in the next year or two. The so-called options platforms on the Internet are illegal and deceptive. Don't go in and be cheated.
