An example of how to trade futures
Taking wheat futures as an example, the futures trading method is as follows:
(1) After paying a 5%-10% deposit, investors can entrust a brokerage company to act as an agent for futures trading. It should be noted that the object of futures trading is a standardized contract, such as a 10-ton standardized strong gluten wheat contract.
(2) Trade by buying low and selling high or selling high and buying low. For example, if you buy one lot of strong gluten wheat at the price of 1000 yuan/ton (one lot of wheat is 10 tons), you can close the position at the price of 1100/ton (that is, sell in reverse transaction). Net profit (1100-1000)*10-2=998 yuan.
In the same way, sell one lot first at the price of 1050 yuan/ton, and close the position at the price of 1000 yuan/ton (that is, buy in reverse transaction), except for the handling fee of 2 yuan/lot, you can make a net profit (1050-1000) *10-2=498 yuan.
(3) The contract has a certain implementation period. For example, if you buy or sell the strong wheat contract in September in June, if you do not conduct hedging transactions (that is, buy and sell or sell and buy) before September, you still hold When buying or selling a contract, physical delivery must be performed, that is, what is bought is 10 tons of wheat in kind, and what is sold is also 10 tons of wheat.
