For Terms of Service on Futures Trading, click here 《Client Securities Account Agreement SCHEDULE VII: Additional Provisions for Futures Contracts and Options Contracts》
Futures is a financial contract in which buyers and sellers promise to buy or sell a certain related asset, such as stocks, market indices, currencies or commodities, at a predetermined price on a specified date in the future. Investors can buy and sell various futures contracts of relevant assets on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. They only need to pay a part of the total contract value as a deposit to buy or sell futures contracts. This leverage feature can magnify investors' returns and losses. When the trend of the price of the relevant asset is contrary to the investor's opinion, the risk of being called for margin (“margin call”) may be faced due to a drop in the margin level, and the loss may exceed the margin deposited. Futures contracts are generally settled in cash, and our company does not provide physical delivery of relevant assets.
The risk of loss in trading futures contracts or options can be substantial. In some cases, your losses may exceed the initial margin deposit amount. Even if you may have set contingent instructions, such as "stop loss" or "limit price" instructions, it still may not be able to avoid losses. Market conditions may make it impossible to execute such instructions. You may be required to deposit additional margin at short notice. If the required margin amount is not satisfied within the specified time, your open positions may be liquidated. However, you remain responsible for any resulting shortfall in your account. Therefore, you should research and understand futures contracts and options before trading, and carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you based on your own financial situation and investment goals. If you trade options, you should familiarize yourself with the rules and procedures, as well as your rights and responsibilities in relation to the exercise and expiration of option contracts.
Therefore, before you trade futures contracts or options, you must have a thorough understanding of the contract terms and trading rules of the relevant products, and you should refer to the relevant information published on the website of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and/or consult your professional advisors, as well as carefully consider whether this type of transaction is suitable for you according to your own financial situation and investment objectives.

Futures Margin Requirements is divided into "Initial Margin" and "Maintenance Margin", whereas the Maintenance Margin is 80% of the Initial Margin. The amount required for the Initial Margin will be adjusted from time to time according to the requirements of the Exchange, at least adjusting monthly, and it will also be adjusted upward in response to market fluctuations or prior to local long holidays. Before clients open a new position, their futures trading account must have sufficient Initial Margin deposited, while after opening a new position must have sufficient Maintenance Margin in place. All futures margin security deposits must be in cash.
II. Margin for Spread Futures Contracts
Spread Futures Contract trading is a single futures contract of the same category or the same trading product in different contract months, trading in opposite directions simultaneously.
At present, Well Link Securities Limited’s margin policy for each pair of the Spread Futures Contracts traded by any client will be treated as two independent (Unilateral) futures contracts in terms of margin security deposits requirements.
At time of volatile market conditions, the margin security deposits required from the client may be raised to a level higher than the Exchange's Initial Margin requirement, which in turn triggers a margin call. As such, the client may be called for margin and demanded for additional fund deposits in a short period of time, in order to maintain the Initial Margin level of their positions. If the additional margin requirement is not satisfied within the specified time, the client may be forced to close the position at a loss, and all losses arising therefrom, including any amount owed after closing the position, must be borne by the customer.
When the net position value or asset valuey of the client’s futures account falls below the Maintenance Margin level, the client will be called for margin security deposits, and the request for margin will usually be triggered according to the risk ratio of the client’s position. When the client is being called for margin, the client should quickly replenish their margin level to the Initial Margin level, or implement adequate risk management in a timely manner by closing their open position(s). Unless the margin call requirement is satisfied, the client will not be allowed for fund withdrawal from their account or opening new positions.
I. When the【Initial Margin】ratio in the client's futures account falls to 80% or below, a margin call notification will be issued, and the client should make the necessary margin deposit as soon as possible or voluntarily close the position until the net asset value returns to the【Initial Margin】requirement level above.
II. When the【Initial Margin】ratio in the client’s futures account falls to 60% or below, further margin call notification will be issued, and the client should immediately make the necessary margin deposit or voluntarily close the position until the net asset value returns to the【Initial Margin】requirement level above.
III. When the【Initial Margin】ratio in the client's futures account falls to 50% or below, forced liquidation may be executed at any time without prior notice or warning until the net position value or asset value of the client’s futures account returns to the【Initial Margin】requirement level.
If the client fails to make the margin call amount within the specified time limit, Well Link Securities Limited has the right to exercise risk management protocol by forcefully closing the position for the client (“force liquidation”) after the specified time limit, without further notice.
I. If the client’s futures trading account is called for margin securities deposits during the Day Trading session (T), the client must ensure the latest margin call amount in full is available within their futures trading account by 04:00 p.m. on that day.
II. If the client’s futures trading account is called for margin securities deposits during the After-Hour Trading session (T+1), the client must ensure the latest margin call amount in full is available within their futures trading account by 09:00 a.m. in the morning of the next trading day.。
By default, futures contract positions will be closed according to the principle of【First Open, First Close】, where the earliest opened futures contract position is closed first, in that order of priority.
I. Clients closed their position during Day Trading session (T) may apply for fund withdrawal of their margin deposit on the same day, whereas the remaining surplus funds (if any) available in their futures trading account may be further withdrawn on the next trading day at the earliest.
II. Clients closed their position during the After-Hour Trading session (T+1) may apply for fund withdrawal on the next trading day at the earliest.
I. If the client holds a cash-settled futures contract and that contract has not been closed at the end of the Last Trading Day, such contract will be settled in cash according to the contract rules of the Exchange.
II. The settlement amount will be deposited into the client's futures trading account on the Last Settlement Day.
I. Simultaneously holding 1 long (short) position in Hang Seng Index futures contract and 5 short (long) positions in Mini Hang Seng Index futures contracts;
II. Simultaneously holding 1 long (short) position in H-Shares Index futures contracts and 5 short (long) positions in Mini H-Shares Index futures contracts.
Well Link Securities Limited (“WLSL”) does NOT provide any services in relation to the【physical delivery】of futures contracts settlement, clients is required to voluntarily close their positions on or before the Last Trading Day. Otherwise, WLSL has the right to forcibly close such position for the client without prior notice, and any resulting losses, including costs, fees and expenses, et cetera will be borne by the client.
