As there are mainly three types of investors :hedgers, speculators and arbitrageurs
Hedging means minimizing ones losses. The futures market was created as a parallel market
where one can create a reverse position to the one in
the cash market,
so that the loss (profit) in cash market gets offset by
profits (loss) in the futures market.
Suppose you have a view that the markets will bounce
back after two months. You buy two or three month Sensex futures. Here you are betting that the markets will increase and want to profit from it. Somebody buying or selling futures without any exposure in the underlying is doing it with a speculative intent and hopes to profit from any unforeseen movements. Speculative trades no doubt require higher margins since they are riskier. This can result in windfall profits or losses based on market movements.
Stock index arbitrage is buying and selling between
cash and futures market to profit from any under or overpricing in either of the markets. It involves buying and selling two different futures
either in different indices or with different maturities.
With the help of various strategies a person can earn
irrespective of the fact whether market is going up or down. With the help of derivative market we can convert our unlimited losses into the limited ones. Derivatives-Futures and Options can be used as effective risk managing tool, and one can earn risk less profits.
