Futures Trading Tutorial

Futures trading can be difficult to understand without the assistance of a tutorial. Like call and put options, futures trading takes place on the derivatives market. There is, however, a key difference between options and futures upon which any investment tutorial should touch.

Options contracts provide you with the right to sell or purchase an investment at a specified price. This ability is profitable if the specified price, known as the strike price, is higher than the current price for those with the right to sell or if the strike price is lower than the current price for those with the right to buy.

The risk of loss in trading commodity futures and options can be substantial. Before trading, you should carefully consider your financial position to determine if futures trading is appropriate. When trading futures and/or options, it is possible to lose the full balance of your account. It is also possible to lose more than your initial deposit when trading futures and/or granting/writing options. As a result, selling/writing "uncovered" options exposes the seller/writer to the possibility of margin calls and virtually unlimited risk. All funds committed should be purely risk capital. Past performance is no guarantee of future trading results.
