in the early days of the exchange, CBOT only traded agricultural procts, such as corn, wheat, oats and soybeans. After years of development, futures contracts of the exchange now include non preserved agricultural procts and non-agricultural procts, such as gold and silver. CBOT's first financial futures contract was launched in October 1975. It is a futures contract based on mortgage-backed securities of the National Mortgage Association. With the launch of the first financial futures contract, futures trading has been graally introced to a variety of different financial instruments, including U.S. Treasury bonds, stock index and interest rate swap. Another financial innovation, futures options, was launched in 1982
in the past 150 years, the main trading mode of CBOT is open outcry trading, that is, traders buy and sell futures contracts face to face in the trading floor. However, in order to meet the needs of global economic growth, CBOT successfully launched the first electronic trading system in 1994. In the past decade, with the increasing popularity of electronic trading, the exchange has upgraded its electronic trading system several times. In January 2004, CBOT launched another new electronic trading system supported by the leading LIFFE connect trading technology. When CBOT launched the new trading system, the exchange also completed the transformation of clearing business. The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) began to provide clearing and related business services for all CBOT procts in January 2004. CME / CBOT joint clearing network combines two leading financial institutions. The clearing network improves the efficiency of business, margin and capital, and benefits futures brokers and end-users of futures procts
whether it is electronic trading or public bidding, the main role of CBOT is to provide customers with a transparent and liquid contract market, which is used for price discovery, risk management and investment. Farmers, companies, small business owners, financial service providers, international trading institutions and other indivials or institutions can manage price, interest rate and exchange rate risks through a process called hedging. Hedging is the operation of offsetting the inherent price risk of spot market position by holding equal but opposite positions in futures market. Hedgers use CBOT futures market to protect their business to avoid the adverse impact of adverse price changes on their earnings
the futures market also allows global speculators to explain and use economic data, news and other information to determine the trading price and whether to enter the market as investors. Speculators fill the gap of hedger's bid and ask price, so the market has higher liquidity and cost efficiency. All kinds of market participants have different opinions and access to different market information. The transactions of market participants lead to price discovery and provide benchmark price

1. Both the buyer and the seller can exercise their options by hedging
2. The buyer can also convert the option into a futures contract (obtain a corresponding futures position at the strike price level specified in the option contract)
3. Any option will automatically lapse if it is not used when it matures. If the option is null and void, the buyer will not exercise the option until it expires. In this way, the buyer of the option will lose the premium at most
option premium
as mentioned earlier, option premium is the price at which an option contract is purchased or sold. For the option buyer, he must pay a premium to the option seller in exchange for certain rights given by the option; For the option seller, he has to fulfill the obligation of the option contract by selling the option, so he receives a premium as reward. As the royalty is borne by the buyer, it is the maximum amount of loss that the buyer needs to bear when the most unfavorable change occurs, so the royalty is also called & quot; Insurance money
principle of option trading
if you buy a call option with a fixed price, you can enjoy the right to buy related futures after paying a small amount of premium. Once the price really rises, they will exercise the call option to obtain the long futures at a low price, and then sell the relevant futures contracts at a high price according to the rising price level to obtain the profit margin, which will make up for the premium paid. If the price does not rise but falls, the call option can be abandoned or transferred at a low price, and the maximum loss is the royalty. The reason why the buyer of the call option buys the call option is that through the analysis of the price change of the relevant futures market, he believes that the price of the relevant futures market is likely to rise by a large margin. Therefore, he buys the call option and pays a certain amount of royalty. Once the market price rises substantially, he will make a greater profit by buying futures at a lower price, which is greater than the amount of premium paid by his call option. He can also sell the option contract at a higher premium price in the market to hedge his profit. On the one hand, if the market price only rises slightly, the buyer can perform or hedge to obtain a little profit and make up for the loss of the premium; On the other hand, if the market price falls, the buyer fails to perform, and the biggest loss is the amount of royalty paid
the relationship between option trading and futures trading
there are differences and connections between option trading and futures trading. The connection is as follows: firstly, both of them are transactions characterized by standardized forward contracts; Secondly, in terms of price relationship, the futures market price has an impact on the strike price and royalty determination of option trading contract. Generally speaking, the fixed price of option trading is based on the delivery price of the same kind of goods in forward trading determined by the futures contract, and the difference between the two prices is an important basis for determining the royalty; Third, futures trading is the basis of option trading, and the content of trading is generally the right to buy and sell a certain number of futures contracts. The more developed the futures trading is, the more basic the option trading is. Therefore, the mature futures market and complete rules create conditions for the emergence and development of option trading. The emergence and development of option trading provide more alternative tools for hedgers and speculators to carry out futures trading, thus expanding and enriching the trading content of futures market; Fourth, futures trading can be long and short, and traders do not necessarily carry out physical settlement. Option trading can also do long and short, the buyer does not have to exercise this right, as long as it is favorable, it can also transfer this right. The seller does not have to perform, but can buy the same option before the buyer exercises his right; Fifthly, because the subject matter of an option is a futures contract, the buyer and the seller will get the corresponding futures positions when the option is executed.

bitcoin trading scam:
1. At the end of October 2013, Hong Kong GBL platform absconded with money, with more than 20 million yuan missing. The program of this trading website is very poor. It doesn't use SSL security protocol, and even the user name is stored in clear text. They don't have some basic programming knowledge. GBL relies on the broker to develop the new customer's "quasi MLM" mode
On October 22, 2013, looking at the market of bitcoin, Mr. Qiao, a citizen of Dongyang, searched GBL company, a bitcoin trading platform, on the Internet, and recharged 90000 yuan to buy and sell bitcoin through a third-party payment. On October 26, 2013, it was found that the staff of the online trading platform were not online, and some normal trading proceres could not be implemented. It was found that the registered address of the company was false after a check, and a total of 90000 yuan was cheated P>3 and Western economists have a lot of worries about the current economic bubble phenomenon of bitcoin. Australian Economist John Quiggin called bitcoin "the purest example of the economic bubble." p>
the second question. For convenience, according to the American term, long is to buy, short is to sell, call is to be bullish and put is to be bearish, However, there is no upper limit for the loss of short call. Although it seems that there is no upper limit for the loss of short pull, the theory that the maximum loss of a stock is 0 yuan is limited. Therefore, the maximum loss of a pair of
b long put and long call is the margin. Please note that this is the theory, When the long call's side can choose not to execute when the stock goes up or falls to infinity, so the biggest loss is the margin, which is definitely limited
C is obviously not equal. Long has the right to execute, while short has only the right to be executed, so the risk of short is much greater
