TFX Daily Futures Indices / Forex Products

Product Advantages

1. Yen Settlement, Avoiding USD Exchange Rate Risk

When investing internationally, currency fluctuations often pose hidden risks to profits, especially with the US dollar experiencing significant volatility in recent years. All products offered by TFX are settled in Japanese yen, which is a major advantage for investors who wish to avoid exposure to US dollar assets or want to hedge against uncertainties caused by USD fluctuations.

• No need to convert to USD, no foreign currency holding risk
• Suitable for investors bearish on the US dollar or holding yen-denominated assets
• Can be used to hedge against other yen-denominated assets

2. Diverse Product Selection, Flexibly Meeting Trading Needs

TFX offers derivative products covering global market trends—from US stock indices to major currencies—in a one-stop trading platform, greatly improving investment efficiency.

Index Products (with expiration dates):

• Mini Dow Jones Industrial Average
• Mini Nasdaq 100
• Mini Nikkei 225

Forex Products (without expiration dates):

• USD/JPY
• EUR/JPY
• GBP/JPY
• TRY/JPY
• PLN/JPY

3. Forex products have no expiration limits, allowing for more flexible positions

Traditional futures are settled monthly or quarterly, often causing inconvenience for investors needing to roll over positions. TFX’s forex contracts expire daily and automatically roll over, eliminating concerns about forced liquidation due to futures settlement.

• Long-term positions without monthly rollovers, lower trading costs
• Suitable for swing trading and value investing strategies
• Interest-like exchange points calculated daily and credited to the margin account

4. Index products can be held up to 15 months, suitable for medium- to long-term strategies

TFX’s index futures can be held for up to 15 months (forward contracts), offering greater flexibility compared to standard futures contracts (usually 1–3 months).

• Allows planning for the next year’s first-quarter market in advance, without monthly rollovers
• Medium-term investors can avoid frequent position adjustments
• Contract design resembles “spot ETF” trading habits

5. Low Margin Threshold, Accessible to Retail Investors

TFX adopts a “small lot, low margin” design, significantly lowering the investment threshold. For example:

• NASDAQ: Margin per contract ~11,350 JPY (~TWD 2,255)
• Forex products like USD/JPY, EUR/JPY: Margin in the 20,000–30,000 JPY range

This allows beginners and small-cap investors to participate easily and use leverage to improve capital efficiency.

6. Combining Japan’s Rigorous Risk Control with Taiwanese Broker Support

TFX is regulated by the Japan Financial Services Agency, with strict trading systems designed according to Japanese financial standards and global regulatory norms, ensuring high trustworthiness. Through collaboration with Capital Futures, TFX offers a traditional Chinese interface and complete trading support.
