Summary:
Futures tracking is about analyzing data to assist traders, but it doesn't guarantee profits, it's just a assist tool for traders.
In the stock market, when a stock is bought and sold by large funds, other funds will also follow suit, which is known as "following orders". So, is there a tracking system in the futures market, and what does futures tracking mean?
Futures tracking is a comprehensive process that involves scientifically screening samples to find target data that meets the requirements and converting it into actual future book returns.
The concept of futures tracking has been proposed for a long time and is mainly divided into two types: forward tracking and reverse tracking. Simply put, it is to find "experts" and follow them forward, or find "low hands" and follow them back to earn profits.
The so-called forward tracking refers to "letting professional people do professional things", selecting the traders with the best returns and achieving stable profits from numerous trading hands, and following them to trade.
The so-called reverse tracking refers to following one or more traders who are experiencing stable losses. Of course, the more precise the screening, the higher the success rate of reverse tracking.
There are two main profit models for futures reverse tracking:
1) Self-use mode: Use the established team for self-use, deepen trading, and profit from the futures market;
2) He uses a model to connect established relevant data with customers, develop customers through external investment, and earn fees including handling fees, data fees, software fees, etc.
The main purpose of futures tracking is to obtain better investment returns by replicating trading strategies that follow other traders or investment portfolios. The following are some specific purposes of futures tracking:
1. Drawing on successful traders
Tracking investors can choose to follow outstanding traders and learn their trading decision-making process, risk management strategies, and trading skills to improve their trading skills.
2. Diversify investment risks
By following multiple traders or investment portfolios, investment risks can be diversified. When a trader or investment portfolio experiences losses, other traders or investment portfolios following orders may perform well, thereby achieving overall portfolio balance and stability.
3. Save time and effort
Tracking investors do not need to spend a lot of time and effort researching and analyzing the market but rely on the professional knowledge and experience of the traders or investment portfolios being followed.
4. Diversify investment
By following different traders or investment portfolios, investment diversification can be achieved by covering different markets and varieties. This helps reduce the overall risk of the investment portfolio and provides more opportunities to generate profits.
Futures tracking is not a method to ensure profitability, and investors still need to possess a certain level of market awareness and risk management skills. Meanwhile, documentary investors should conduct sufficient research and due diligence, select suitable traders or investment portfolios, and closely monitor their trading strategies and performance.
