INE Freight Futures Trading Volume Picks Up, Prices Rise As Margins And Trading Limits Are Rolled Back

As of March 20, 2024, the INE will reduce trading margins and price limits for the contracts listed below:

The trading margins of the EC2406, EC2408, EC2410 and EC2412 futures contracts will be lowered 4% from 22% to 18% of the contract value and the price limit will be ±16% from the settlement price of that day.

Meanwhile, daily new position limits for speculative traders have been doubled, leading to a strong pickup in trading volume from just under 20,000 lots per day across all contracts to over 50,000 as tensions in the Red Sea remain high and the latest export figures from China surprise on the upside.

BANDS Financial receives the SGX Top FX Derivatives Broker Award at the SGX FX Derivatives 10th Year Anniversary Awards

At BANDS, our strength lies in connecting the Chinese and international markets, so naturally, currency futures play a significant role in enabling our clients to hedge their exposure against exchange rate fluctuations. The SGX USD/CNH (UC) contract, in particular, has thus become a key part of the cross-border arbitrage trading toolbox we provide to our clients at BANDS.

Congratulations to SGX Group for 10 years of continuous progress and growth! Thank you to SGX Group for recognising BANDS Financial's contributions to the development of this market. And here's to the next 10 years together!
