Outlined within the futures market survey are responses from four separate audiences: a General Online Audience, surveyed on Facebook; a Business Professional Audience, surveyed on LinkedIn; an Active Investor Audience, surveyed on Barchart.com; and, a Listed Derivatives Audience surveyed through the John Lothian Newsletter. By collecting responses from four separate audiences, Barchart was able to give readers the capability to clearly understand each individual cohort as well as which tools and features matter the most to each audience while trading and analyzing the futures markets.
“The futures market is filled with many different types of investors, traders, hedgers, and market participants. Our report gives readers an inside look into how each of these different audiences interacts with the futures market, on which platforms, and for what purposes,” says Barchart CEO, Mark Haraburda. “The survey uncovers some valuable data which can be used by industry firms and others for guiding future decision making, marketing and product development‒we hope you find the insights useful,” added Haraburda.
