The Benefits You Can Enjoy While Trading on VIOP
Investment Opportunity in Price Decline: In spot markets, a sell (short) position, also known as short sale, provides an opportunity to invest in price declines.
Collateral Yielding: The collateral in VIOP client accounts yields interest income on a daily basis.
Risk Management (Hedging): An investor can manage risk by taking a contrarian position in futures markets to hedge against the depreciation risk of assets in the spot market.
Leveraged Trading Feature: VIOP allows investors to trade larger volumes with lower collateral. However, it is important to note that leveraging carries a risk of loss in addition to the potential for profit.
