Traders To Use Leveraged Futures To Their Advantage

Online, February 28, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Futures trading site FTAcademy.com has suggested that traders should make the most of futures contracts across their portfolio, in order to trade highly leveraged positions on more reliable trades and maximise the opportunities available to them for profit.

A highly leveraged instrument by design, futures contracts offer traders the chance to artificially amplify the degree of gains that can be seen from a profitable position. Therefore traders who make use of futures contracts as opposed to cash market trades, or other unleveraged forms of investment, can generate more significant returns on the same like-for-like positions.

For traders looking to maximise their performance and make the most from trading the markets, using futures as part of a diversified trading account can be a solid way of ensuring profitable positions make money while covering for the risks inherent in market exposure, according to FTAcademy.com.

A spokesperson for FTAcademy.com said that it was up to traders to find ways to effectively implement futures across their portfolio, in order to maximise the returns on offer and realise the optimum profits from available market opportunities. "When managing a finite amount of trading capital, it's vital that you put your resources to best effect in order to maximise efficiency and generate more significant returns. As a highly leveraged instrument that delivers speculation potential over short, mid and longer term markets, futures are a flexible way of gearing up exposure in successful positions, and traders should consider ways in which they could use futures to optimise their capital performance in like for like positions."
