Trading Futures Contracts is not necessarily feasible for all investors. You can suffer large losses in a short period of time. It is possible that the amount of money lost may exceed the amount of money you first deposited (Initial Margin) to your Futures Broker. You may suffer a loss of all Margin and additional Margin placed at the Futures Broker to maintain your Futures Contract position. This is because Futures Trading is heavily influenced by the leverage mechanism, where a relatively small amount of investment can be used to open positions with assets of much higher value. If you are not ready for this kind of risk, you should not trade Futures Contracts.
