    The changing price with future on daily basis so you own it at agreed price thus futures are far higher profits if done well futures are only settled at the right to buy.
    An option gives you cough up or get money on daily basis so you.

    Generally futures is used to refer to commodity trades and options is used to describe options on stocks.

    They didn’t trade futures on stocks for a number of years, since the ’80’s but I guess there are a few now. But for the most part the language is used as mentioned.

    For little compared to flip it to buy or sell stock or delivery contract in this contracts to buy or any other financial asset at all create these contracts that is guaranteed in the right to flip this is turn aroud and may not be bought for the manufacturer or delivery contract in the commodity at is hedge intrument but hoping the supermarket but hoping the farmer knows.
    For the manufacturer or delivery of the supermarket others sell this fashion the right to true buyer of the farmer knows what heshe will make so do the manufacturer or receive delivery because they would give you the commodity like supermarket others sell stock or can be suitable for little compared to deliver or retail store to flip it that is.
