Margin Trading Facility (MTF) lets you buy stocks by paying only part of the amount upfront, while Futures & Options (F&O) allow trading contracts with margin and higher risk-reward potential. MTF is better for long-term investors seeking delivery with leverage, whereas F&O suits active traders aiming for short-term gains. Your choice depends on risk appetite, time horizon, and trading style.
