2.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE
Indian markets have recently thrown open a new avenue for retail investors and
traders to participate commodity derivatives. For those who want to diversity their
portfolios beyond shares, bonds and real estate, commodities are the best option.
Till some months ago, this wouldn’t have made sense. For retail investors could have
done very little to actually invest in commodities such as gold and silver or oilseeds in the
futures market. This was nearly impossible in commodities except for gold and silver as
retail investors can now trade in commodity futures without having physical stocks.
for market-savvy investors, arbitrageurs and speculators. Retail investors, who claim to
commodities are easy to understand as far as fundamentals of demand and supply are
concerned. Retail investors should understand the risks and advantages of trading in
commodities futures has been less volatile compared with equity and bonds, thus
Rs.140000 crore. With the introduction of future trading, the sizes of the commodities
Like any other market, the one for commodity futures plays a valuable role in
information pooling and risk sharing. The market mediates between buyers and sellers of
commodities. In the process, they make the underlying market more liquid.
“Hedgers, speculations and arbitrators are the types of traders in derivatives markets”.
Hedgers
Hedgers are those who protect themselves from the risk associated with the price
of an asset by using derivatives. A person keeps a close watch upon the prices discovered
in trading and when the comfortable price is reflected according to his wants, he sells
futures contracts. In the way he gets an assured fixed price of his produce.
In general, hedgers use futures for protection against adverse future price
individuals, who at one point or another deal in the underlying cash commodity.
Take an example:
A Hedger pays more to the farmer or dealer of a produce if its prices go up. For
protection against higher prices of the produce, he hedges the risk exposure by buying
enough future contracts of the produce to cover the amount of produce he expects to buy.
Since cash and futures prices do tend to move in tandem, the futures position will profit if
the price of the produce raise enough to offset cash loss on the produce.
SPECULATORS
Speculators are some what like a middleman. They are never interested in actual
owing the commodity. They will just buy from one end and sell it to the other in
They are the second major group of futures players. These participants include

1. If the trader’s judgment is good, he can make more money in the futures market
faster because prices tend, on average, to change more quickly than real estate or
stock prices.
2. Futures are highly leveraged investments. The trader puts up a small fraction of
the value of the underlying contract as margin, yet he can ride on the full value of
the contract as it moves up and down. The money he puts up is not a down
payment on the underlying contract, but a performance bond. The actual value of
the contract is only exchanged on those rare occasions when delivery takes place.
ARBITRATORS
make a decision two people or groups who do not agree is known as arbitrators. In
commodities market arbitrators are the person who takes the advantages of a discrepancy
between prices in two different markets. If he finds future prices of a commodity edging
out with the cash price, he will take offsetting positions in both the markets to lock in a
profit. Move over the commodity futures investor is not charged interest on the difference
