Forex Vs. Futures | SigmaForex

Roman denariusForex Vs. Futures:

Futures is Exchange traded contracts are not issued like securities, but they are "created" when one party buys (goes long) a contract from another party (who goes short). In the beginning there are no contracts, so the number of long contracts must equal the number of short contracts. This always goes through the exchange, which means that the exchange is the counter party for all trades. However, the exchange does not take any net positions. In this way clients do not know with whom they have ultimately traded. Compare this with securities, in which an issuer issues the security. After that, it is a legal entity that is traded independently of the issuer. Even if the issuer buys back some securities, they still exist. Only if they are legally canceled can they disappear.
