Given current technological developments, futures trading transactions can easily be assisted by technology in making transaction decisions.
The government through the Ministry of Trade BAPPEBTI has issued CoFTRA Regulation (PERBA) Number 12 of 2022 concerning the Application of Information Technology Advice in the Form of Expert Advisors.
The basis for the issuance of this regulation is the protection of the interests of all parties and the creation of legal certainty for people engaged in futures trading.
