It costs at least 3000 yuan to buy futures. For example, if you buy first-hand futures, the current price of corn futures is 3,000 yuan, the specification is 10 ton, and the margin rate is 1 1%, then the margin required to buy first-hand corn futures is 3,000 *11%= 3,300 yuan. The prices of futures products vary, with the lowest price around 3,000 yuan, and the futures prices of crude oil precious metals and stock indexes above 10,000 yuan or even 100,000 yuan.
