Mechanics & risks
How it works
You agree to buy the underlying at a future date for a price set today. P&L is roughly linear with spot, but with high leverage via margin.
When to use
You want directional exposure with capital efficiency, and can manage daily mark-to-market.
Risks
- Leverage amplifies both gains and losses; margin calls if it moves against you.
- Daily settlement; not buy-and-forget.
- Loss can exceed your initial margin.
