Futures and Options (1)

High Stakes Investing(1)

Investors who trade in futures and options are dealing in a different world of investing, removed from stocks, bonds or unit trusts.

It is a specialised market where the pace is much faster and the risk, higher.

While with stocks, an investor can still afford to sit back and see which direction his shares are heading,

in futures he has to stay on top of price all the time for he can lose a fortune or make a fortune in minutes.

Futures and options are not for the amateur investor;

even those who are extremely knowledgeable and who trade all the time have been burnt.
