(1) SUMMARY OF THE SCENARIO:

Asian stock markets started the week high, from Chinese data released over the weekend, which indicated an increase in economic activity. Attention also were on account of the meeting of central banks held at the weekend in Switzerland, for approval of new rules for financial system - Basel III, with the possibility of compulsory banks raise more capital, which would require issuing coins by the BC world.

JAPAN: Japanese stocks closed higher, but low volume, with investors awaiting the election of the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) tomorrow, but the general feeling of optimism. The banking sector and exporters helped the market, the latter helped by the yen's weakness against the euro.

CHINA: China's shares ended higher and were led by oil producers and carmakers, although gains were tempered by the poor performance of bank shares. Leading economic indicators show that China's growth accelerated in August showing a stronger increase than expected industrial production and retail sales, while inflation was in line with forecasts, easing some concerns about rising fees there. Banks were under pressure after the China Business News quoting an unnamed source, reported that the China Banking Regulatory Commission intended to require banks to make a fund equivalent to 2.5% of their loans as reserves in the next year as part efforts to strengthen their balance sheets.

EUROPE: European stocks opened higher, with the major banks are benefiting from new rules on capital adequacy and reserves of resources, based on data from China. The new rules, which were agreed in Basel, Switzerland, aim to prevent risks such as those which triggered the global financial crisis in 2008. At the heart of the new rules, central banks will have to increase the capital requirement to at least 7% of assets, more than the international standard of 2% or 4% required by U.S. banks. Central banks have several years to accommodate the new standards. The EU raised its forecast for economic growth in the euro area, based on a stronger growth than expected in the second quarter. The economic forecast estimates that the GDP will grow 1.7%, above its forecast. The EU also lifted its growth forecast for Britain, projecting 2010 GDP growth of 1.7%.

COMMODIT Y FUTURE TRADING

rading commodities futures is a form of investment where you can make money by speculating with the price for specific goods going up or down in the future. Commodities are usually essential things that people do use in everyday life. Often, these products are the basics needed for a modern society.

When we talk about certain products are sold in the futures market, it must meet certain conditions to make it acceptable for negotiation. The main condition is that the goods should be standardized. For trade in agricultural and industrial commodities, the product should be sold in its raw state and basic unprocessed. In this case, wheat can be traded in the futures market, but not its by-product meal.

Another condition that goods must meet certain is that the type perishable should have validity in accordance with its durability. The reason for this is that these commodities are traded with their scheduled delivery was delayed a future time. Thus, it may not require a long shelf life so that products can be delivered with good quality and still intact. Another condition that a product must meet certain is that it may have price changes and changes often, creating some uncertainty, as well as opportunity for profit.

The story behind the commodity futures trading began in feudal Japan to trade in rice and has evolved from the need of farmers to earn more from each collection. Before trading in commodities futures have started, farmers were always depended on the goodwill of the trader when it comes to price and sell their colheitas.Esses Merchants usually to fix prices and farmers can not to anything but accept the terms . In a way the farmers were being exploited by some dealers and so another way to sell their crop.

Thus, seeking to have a fairer system of doing business, farmers have begun to offer future harvest to interested buyers. Farmers began to take its own terms, for future harvests to dealers. The operation consists of commodities offered as a fixed price and to be delivered on a specified date. The contracts were concluded between the producer and the interested buyer that the specified quantity of goods to be delivered at a particular point in the future. From this system, which today is known as futures trading has begun.

It was sometime in 1878 that a central treatment facility contracts for commodities such as was established in Chicago. In this facility, farmers and traders on the site began in dealing with their grain, which was delivered immediately after an agreement on price. He eventually developed into the trading of futures, when farmers began to commit future harvests interested dealers willing to purchase to ensure that their supply of grain is maintained in the future.

In the early days, the trading of futures initially consists only of a few agricultural commodities such as grains. But later, a large number of other commodities joined the pool and now there is futures trading markets that deal in various precious metals like gold, silver and platinum. There is also a market for futures trading of cattle and livestock, as well as for energy products such as oil and natural gas. It now includes the futures trading of coffee, orange juice ad industry such as cotton and wood, even on interest rate instruments such as currencies and stocks

ADVANTAGES OF FUTURES TRADINGS


Trading in futures markets provides a good opportunity for people to invest in trading futures contracts offers a unique opportunity to invest in something other than stocks. Though sometimes they also work the same way, the futures trading has a different method of gaining revenue for the amount invested in it.

In this market there are some advantages it offers for the trading of futures investors interested. One is that such instruments are considered highly leveraged investments. For an investor has a futures contract, he need only invest a small fraction of the value of the contract. Most investors only invest between five and ten percent of the contract value in exchange for trading them. Thus, investors can trade large quantities of goods which he purchased the goods outright.

If the investor had a good guess and predicted price movement of commodities marketed properly it will have a great chance to use ten-fold for an initial investment of ten percent of the contract value of future real. This is how it works to leverage the advantage of investors in the futures market.

Another advantage of futures trading is that it is basically a paper investment. Although futures trading involves certain commodities, the investor need not worry about taking care of the same products. The exchange is made with the futures contract changing hands, rather than the product itself. This makes it very convenient, since the investor need not worry where to store and maintain the products marketed for the same.

The futures trading has among other advantages is that futures trading is that the futures contracts being traded are considered very liquid. This means there is a huge amount of contracts being traded in the market on a daily basis. Orders can be placed quickly and can be bought or sold in a similar fashion. There is always a large number of buyers and sellers available for futures contracts, which can be good.

One good thing about the market for futures trading is that it enjoys fairer trade, compared with stocks and stock trading. Trading in the futures market can be very vocal as the trade is done amid cries of "Buy!" Or "sell." Another thing is that it's harder to get inside information on the futures market, which seems to be a major problem in handling the trading of stock prices.

Commissions on futures markets tend to be smaller compared to other commercial markets. Commissions are typically paid when the contract expires. Depending on the level of service, commission to brokers can be as low as ten dollars to as high as two hundred per transaction.

For an investor, it may be faster to make money in futures trading. In addition to funding provided by the Futures markets tend to move more quickly compared to money markets. But it can also work against the investor because the pace of the market can also lead to quick losses to the investor of incorrect predictions in their positions.

BASIC IDEAS OF FUTURE TRADING

What is your knowledge about futures trading? Currently, when the economy is tough and life seems to be testing you as you will survive this, there are people who are lucky enough to know how to survive such a crisis. If you do not have any kind of trade for life, never too late to start learning.

Futures markets are known for being one of the most popular markets for trading these days. These are available with a wide range of key elements that are effective with respect to the movement of prices and in terms of liquidity. There are also some futures markets that can be traded throughout the day.

What the Future Hold?

This type of negotiation should not be mistaken as the trading of shares in which you invest in the stock market. In the future, you really do not own anything. The idea here is that you speculate what the future may hold with respect to commodity prices that you'll be negotiating. In other words, we speculate on what the prices of these goods will be in the future. To start, you should invest enough capital that you will deposit on a broker. Thus, it will be sure that you are able to pay for their losses if his trade loses money.

For example, if a farmer decided to sell the future for its cultivation, eg wheat. He'll do it if he thinks the price will fall before the harvest time. In this respect, someone who is also interested in wheat as a bread maker, will decide on purchase of futures contracts if he thinks the price of wheat will rise before being harvested. Whatever happens with the price of the commodity, the farmer and bread maker will be assured of a guaranteed price.

Now someone will invest in trade. This person is interested in changes that can happen over time. And he wants to benefit through the process of buying and selling for a profit. On this point, you can conclude that this trade can be likened to an insurance plan dedicated to people who are involved with trade and invest.

There is money in the Trades

As with any type of game, if you're going to be involved in trading and investing in the future, you need strategies. You have to study their movements and ensure calculate every step you take as you progress through the venture. You can not just rely on luck when no money involved. You have to monitor what is happening in the trade you are in. This way you will be able to plan how you're going to move and what else can you do to win and not lose in the process.

There are famous commodities trader who can testify that the statement is true. But definitely not going to happen overnight. The first thing you have to accept the potential of futures trading. After that, you can move on with their schemes and a further analysis of the situation that has gotten himself and his money.
