Could you please provide an example of a derivative trade and explain the concept behind it in simple terms? How does it differ from trading the underlying asset directly? Additionally, what are the potential risks and rewards associated with derivative trading? It would be great if you could also touch upon the types of derivatives commonly traded in the financial markets.
