| Abstract | This study bridges the gap between future trading prospects and information required to mold investors’ sentiments so s/he could devise better future trading strategies. This study takes all companies which trade the futures on the KSE. This study used the monthly data of futures trading, stock return, stock turnover, high-low ratio, and the realized volatility. The data is taken from January 2008 to December 2012 to test investor sentiments' impact on future trading. Companies’ data is retrieved from the official website of KSE. The thirty-eight companies’ data is used in this study. The contrivance of future trading relationships with the investor sentiments is appraised in this study. The main difference between this and the previous discourse is that we construct the futures trading model that employs the investor sentiments. The verdict of this study holds important useful implications particularly as consideration of investor sentiments in the presence of futures trading in Pakistan. |
