9.1 – Different Types of Contracts
By now, you should have a working understanding of futures contracts and how to trade them. But so far, we’ve mainly discussed futures with equity futures examples. But there are other contracts for other asset classes like currencies and commodities. We will look into them in this video.
And with this, we would like to conclude this video series on Futures Trading. We hope you enjoyed watching and learning from this module as much as we enjoyed curating it!
In the next series, we will discuss options.

Dear Karthik,
I am unable to find Option Video Series.
Please help as the content is too good and learning has been awesome.
We are yet to put up the option videos. Maybe another 15-20 days.
Weekly and monthly can be the expiry of future contracts?
Yes, thats right.
Thanks sir😀
Have a nice day!!
YOu too!
Great video , now I am waiting for options videos
Hope to put it up soon.
Such a great series.
Can you please confirm the option module date😅?
In 10 days is what the team said 🙂
Thank you sir for awesome vdos, waiting for options vdos to learn more
Very soon, Varsha! Thanks for your patience.
Hi Karthik, If I do not square my futures position till the end of the expiry day, will the net profit be credited to my account or I lose the profit. Because I know that the loss is adjusted against the margin money. And is it true for the options position also?
Yes, thats right. But this is true only for Index derivatives as they are cash-settled. For stocks, these are physically settled i.e. stocks come and go to your demat account.
Really Interesting content.. loving this series. all concepts are explained so well..
Happy learning!
Can it be possible we don’t get any buyers in a falling market and we cannot exit the future contract and have to physically settle?
Yes, that is possible. Its called the liquidity risk. The contract will, however, get settled upon expiry.
Is levrege should be high or low
Maximum of 5 times in the Indian market.
Whether shorting of derivative contract i.e. sell contract of F&0 segment require square off in the day itself as done for equities( i.e. shorting of equities need to be done in the day itself around 3:20 PM of the trading day called it intraday trading) or can wait up to expiry day. Request your comments at the earliest. Thanks & Regards.
Amit, when you short stocks in the cash market, the short position has to be closed within the same day before the market closes. In derivatives market, the short positions can be carried forwarded.
Dear Sir – Extremely grateful for your reply. Thanks & Regards. Amit
Happy learning, Amit 🙂
Sir after understanding future contrat it really feel disapointed.
The one lesson i learn from future is to invest whatever we have .
Ex:delivery is best.
Each instrument has its own pros ad cons; you need to figure how to use these instruments to match your risk and reward appetite perspective.
As i am beginner thats way saying these.
But i got your point 👍
Sure, happy learning Niraj!
does futures contracts also have weekly expiry?
Not for now.
