"I saw it."
Chen Dong nodded, and he concluded that the Nikkei 255 index would break through the psychological barrier of 100 points, and gave Wangcai a target price of 100 points.
Knowing the outcome beforehand, Chen Dong was less surprised than the others, but to avoid spoiling the atmosphere, he still offered words of encouragement.
"What would you like to eat for lunch? I'll have someone order a fancy meal from the hotel."
The words had barely left his mouth.
Everyone looked at Chen Dong.
Someone asked in surprise, "Boss, are we closing out our positions today?"
This was originally a joke.
Even if they make a reservation at a restaurant, they won't actually go to the restaurant to eat; instead, they'll pack all the food up and bring it home to eat.
The food was the same, but the atmosphere of a restaurant was missing.
But for everyone else, it was just a meal.
When the topic of closing out positions came up, Wangcai looked at Chen Dong, his earlier cheerfulness gone. "Boss, come and take a look at our positions."
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong walked towards Wangcai. When he saw that the number of long positions in the account had reached 9,000 standard lots, Chen Dong's brows immediately furrowed.
"The position is a bit heavy."
Chen Dong spoke casually, but to Wangcai it sounded like a bolt from the blue.
For Chen Dong to say something like that, one can imagine how terrifying a number of 9,000 standard lots of stock index futures must be.
Let's just say that.
Based on 9,000 standard contracts, every fluctuation of ±5 points in the Nikkei 255 index would result in a staggering unrealized profit or loss of $2.91 million.
Chen Dong's stock index futures account shows that the average cost of establishing a position in 9,000 standard long contracts is at a certain point.
Based on the current Nikkei 255 index points, the total unrealized profit is 3035 points, or $1.766 billion.
Despite such a large unrealized profit, Chen Dong felt no joy whatsoever.
The reason is that this is just paper profit. To turn this paper profit into real profit, the long positions need to be closed out. Only then will the paper profit become real profit.
But here's the problem: to close out a long position of 9,000 standard lots, another long position needs to take over.
Conversely, if a short contract is closed out, another short seller needs to take over.
If 9,000 standard contracts are dumped, and there are no long positions to support them, the Nikkei 255 index could be broken through instantly.
At that point, it won't be about how much profit we make, but whether we can make a profit at all.
Fortunately, the island nation's stock market is following a wave-like pattern, and it will take another month to reach the point Chen Dong initially predicted.
During this period, the Nikkei 255 index will experience a significant pullback.
This is their chance to make their move.
If we can seize this opportunity, the 1.7 billion yuan in unrealized gains on paper will truly become real money.
Thinking of this, Chen Dong stopped talking nonsense and pointed at the screen, "We don't need to wait for the point. Judging from this trend, it won't be reached in a short time. We'll start from the point and close our positions with small orders. If we really can't close them all, we'll open short positions at the end of the trading day to close them."
"Yes, boss!"
Wangcai frowned, looking very serious. This was the first time he had heard Chen Dong mention opening an empty platform.
Previously, no matter how extreme the market conditions were, Chen Dong dared to hold his positions overnight.
This is enough to show that the situation is truly dangerous.
Wangcai felt a little regretful.
According to Chen Dong's original operating strategy, it was better to earn less than to put himself in a crisis.
The initial plan was to let Wangcai enter the Japanese market and reap another wave of profits, totaling $1 billion.
Both stock index futures and the stock market require capital allocation, especially stock index futures. The leverage of the Nikkei 255 stock index futures reaches a terrifying 100 times. Even the crude oil futures market, known as a meat grinder, does not dare to operate like this.
In stock index futures trading rules, terms like "short closing," "long closing," "short swap," and "long swap" are all technical terms.
For example, if Chen Dong holds a long position but feels uncertain about it and wants to lock in the profits, he would open a short position to close it.
It's like having 5 pears in hand and then selling 5 more pears.
However, this method is a last resort, and at the same time, a handling fee needs to be paid to the exchange.
"Boss, I was wrong."
After giving instructions to the trader, Wangcai returned to Chen Dong and bowed his proud head to him.
This was the first time Chen Dong had ever seen Wangcai like this, like a helpless child.
But a mistake is a mistake.
In the financial market, there are only two standards of judgment: right and wrong.
If it were someone else, investing such a large sum, they would definitely be attacked.
Chen Dong was annoyed by Wangcai's recklessness, but not afraid.
Chen Dong's confidence in entrusting Wangcai with the management stemmed from his understanding of future trends.
On the surface, he appears to be in the open, while the enemy remains hidden.
If you want to test his abilities, you'll probably be disappointed. Unless he can single-handedly change the direction of the entire island nation's stock market, Chen Dong is a god.
Not far away.
Xiang Huasheng was stunned. He looked around and found that everyone looked like they were facing a formidable enemy. Even his master, "Lu Dachui," who usually liked to joke, had stopped smiling.
"Master, Master, what happened? Everything was fine just now?"
Lu Dachui stared intently at the computer screen, saying, "Sit back in your seat. This time, we've really messed up."
What exactly is going on?
Xiang Huasheng was even more confused by what he was told!
Not only his master, but all the other traders were also watching intently.
point.
point.
point.
......
"Almost there, almost there! Everything is ready. As soon as the Japanese stock index exceeds a certain point, we'll start placing pre-orders. Remember, pre-orders!"
Orders were issued in an orderly manner.
