Derivatives / F&O
Futures and options on indices and stocks, for hedging or for directional positions.
Derivatives derive their value from an underlying index or stock. Futures commit both parties to a transaction at a future date; options give the buyer a right without an obligation. Both are leveraged instruments traded against a margin.
What this includes
- Index and stock futures and options
- Margin-based positions with exchange-set requirements
- Used for hedging existing exposure or for directional views
- Positions and margins visible in your trading account
What to weigh up
- Derivatives are leveraged: losses can exceed the margin placed and can be substantial.
- A significant proportion of individual derivatives traders incur net losses. Study SEBI’s published findings before you begin.
- Margin requirements change intraday and positions may be squared off if margins fall short.
- This segment is not suitable for most first-time investors.
Who this generally suits
Experienced participants who understand leverage, margin obligations and the risk of substantial loss.
This is a general description, not a suitability assessment or a recommendation for your circumstances.
