I. Futures accounts can be divided into two types, one is commodity futures account and the other is stock index futures account. Commodity futures account has no capital threshold and does not need capital verification. Just like stocks, adults over the age of 18 can also open accounts. The futures account, that is, the stock index, needs funds. Before opening an account, it needs 500,000 yuan to be placed in the commodity futures account for 5 trading days.
More than 99% of the futures customers I have met are engaged in commodity futures, and few people will engage in stock index futures. Commodity futures are relatively cheap, and more than a dozen futures can be traded for 5000 yuan. For example, thread futures can be bought and sold for more than 2000 yuan, methanol futures 1500 yuan, soybean meal 1300 yuan. Moreover, the fluctuation of most futures products is the profit and loss of 10 yuan, which is very cheap and acceptable to most investors, so you can open an account without capital verification.
Second, futures account matters needing attention:
First of all, you should make sure that the futures company you open an account with is formal, so that your funds are safe. It can be viewed through the following list of futures companies in official website of CSRC.
Pay attention to the commission and margin standards given by futures companies. Most futures companies give you a high default fee and deposit, the general fee is 2-5 times of the minimum fee, and the deposit is 0.5 -2 times of 65438+ the minimum deposit.
The actual handling fee charged by our trading account = the fixed handling fee of the exchange+the extra handling fee charged by the futures company.
Pay attention to the additional services of futures companies. The servers of futures companies are all rented from the exchange, and the speed is the same, which means that the hardware strength is similar, so we should pay attention to the soft power of futures companies. Soft power is mainly reflected in customer service training and customer service. 1. Basic knowledge of futures trading. Companies with perfect customer service will prepare videos and simulation software for novices. After one or two hours of basic simulation, novices will be familiar with futures trading operations and help customers get started efficiently. It may take a few days for a novice to learn by groping for it himself. And it is likely to ignore some important information and affect the transaction. On the other hand, what is more important is the training of futures trading analysis technology.
