Future contract is too risky due to the high multiple of leverage n MARGIN CALLS.
2 more draw backs r

I suggest people should have a nice look at the most wonderful products available in the US mkt. In fact whatever derivatives u can think of that we should have them in msia, they edi existed in US years ago.
