The market value of the position refers to the value of the stock owned by the position. For example, if a stock currently holds 65,438+0,000 shares and the stock price is 65,438+00 yuan, then the market value of the position is 65,438+00 * 65,438+0000 = 65,438+0000 yuan.

Usually, investors can find the current market value of positions in the securities trading software, but the market value of positions does not represent the profit amount, and profits can only be considered after deducting the cost of positions and trading commissions.

When the market value of a stock or fund position increases, it means that the performance of this stock or fund is very good. At this time, you can sell or continue to add positions.

Before the expiration of physical delivery or cash delivery, investors can voluntarily decide to buy and sell futures contracts according to market conditions and personal wishes. However, investors (bulls or bears) hold futures contracts without performing reverse operations (selling or buying) in the same delivery month and quantity, which is called "holding positions".

In the futures operation of gold and other commodities, whether buying or selling, all new positions are called opening positions. After the operator opens a position, he holds a position in his hand, which is called a position.

Quantitative algorithm

For the algorithm of opening positions, it is calculated in China. The increase in positions represents the inflow of funds into the futures market, and vice versa. The impact on the price should be analyzed together with the volume.

rise in price

1: The increase in trading volume and positions and the rise in prices indicate that prices may continue to rise.

2. The decrease in trading volume and positions and the increase in prices indicate that prices will rise in the short term and will fall back soon.

3. Volume increases, positions decrease and prices rise, which indicates that prices will fall immediately.

price falling

1: The volume and position increase, but the price falls, which may fall in the short term.

2. Turnover and positions decrease, prices fall, and prices will continue to fall in the short term.

3. As the turnover increases, the positions and prices fall, and the prices may rise.

An open position and a closed position

Closing a position refers to the trading behavior of a trader, and the way to close a position is to hedge the position in the opposite direction. Since opening and closing have different meanings, traders must specify whether to open or close a stock index futures contract.

For example, an investor opened his position in 65438+February 15, and bought the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 index futures 10 lots (sheets) in 65438+ 10, with a transaction price of 1400 points. At this time, he has a long position of 10.

By 65438+February 17, investors saw that the futures price had gone up, so they sold six lots of 65438+ 10/0 stock index futures at the price of15. After the transaction, the actual position of the investor is only 4 lots.

. If the investor sells six open contracts of 65438+ 10 month stock index futures at the time of declaration, after the transaction, the actual position of the investor is not the original four hands, but the long position of 10 hand and the short position of 6 hands.
