A successful managed
futures trading
advisor has the
flexibility to go
long or short with
the markets. They
can buy futures
in anticipation
of a rising market
or sell futures
in anticipation
of a falling market,
generating greater
potential for profit
regardless of current
market conditions.
With the advent
of ever improving
technologies came
increasing access
to a host of global
futures exchanges
which in turn allows
managed futures
trading advisors
to diversify their
trading systems
by participating
in over 150 different
markets worldwide.
These markets include
currencies, stock
indices, financials,
agricultural products,
precious metals,
energy products,
and more.
As a result, managed
futures trading
advisors have an
extraordinary variety
of venues and opportunities
for profit potential
and risk reduction
through an array
of non-correlated
markets.
The table shows
the explosive growth
in global futures
and options volume
in selected markets
over a one-year
time frame in millions
of contracts and
the percent change
in volumes over
that short period.
