Futures contracts and options are the primary instruments that traders use while trading on commodity exchanges. A futures contract will obligate the buyer to purchase an asset (or the seller to sell an asset) - such as a physical commodity or a financial instrument - at a predetermined future date and price. Options give buyers the right, but not the obligation, to buy an asset at a predetermined future date and price. In both cases, this predetermined future date is called the delivery date. The delivery dates for derivatives offered on the following commodity exchanges are listed below.
