How to Calculate Profit or Loss on Futures Contracts

[@Jupiter1423]

When you finally get your ahead around the complexities of the futures/forward derivities markets.... only to find out how much more complicated options are

[@wandabrowne8313]

hahahaha

[@DEBBIRLA1]

Why does not a single video considers the brokerage fee in their calculations. It substantially reduces the profit margin. Brokerage fees are so important element also

[@Imisambi]

and taxes 😩

Very good video! I have USDT in my OKX wallet and I have my recovery phrase. [pride]-[pole]-[obtain]-[together]-[second]-[when]-[future]-[mask]-[review]-[nature]-[potato]-[bulb] How do I transfer them to Binance?

[@middaymilk9598]

does the same calculation goes for forex futures as well?

[@creebuddha]

WOW futures are WAY more profitable than equities its true..

[@gomes8335]

Exactly

[@mradavid]

leverage works both ways though

[@KusogeMan]

also bigger losses lol

[@patmat.]

Profit/loss
= 1000 barrels x difference of expected barrel price (now - when you purchased the Future)
= 1000 x (Tick price x N Ticks)

thank you

[@MohOz]

Why not simple calculate as 1000*(Current price - Original price)= 1000*0.4$=400$

[@Friendznco]

Because not every futures product has a tick size of $.01

Thank you very very much for sharing this knowledge 🥂

Get ... loss

[@patmat.]

So what is quoted on the Futures Market is not the contract price (Initial Margin), it's the expected price of 1 off of its underlying asset .... hmm 🤔 thank you.

[@HardWork937]

Soooooooooooo…you have to have quite a few contracts on the same asset to make any real money…Forex makes way money than futures…
