When the involved ones make a negotiation, define the price for purchase and sales, knowing that the contract is standardized and is related to one determined active one, for ' ' entrega' ' in determined date. On the delivery valley an exception: many assets are not related the physical delivery, then we go to start to speak in expiration of the future contract. Former: Mini future Contract of Dollar. Nobody has that to deliver the amount of dollar or to receive the amount in the date from the expiration, the adjustments and rightness are made financially.

The price of negotiation of the future contract tends to converge to the price of the market the sight (SPOT). A future contract creates an obligation between the involved parts. Who purchase and who vende are obliged to fulfill with its parts in the contract. Thus the two parts can exert its right in the date of maturity.
