Delivery of stock index futures: according to the difference between the "price" of your futures contract and the actual "price" of the current spot market, it is equivalent to closing the position at the spot "price" on the delivery date. Stock index futures are delivered in cash.
The so-called cash delivery means that there is no need to deliver a basket of stock index components, but the spot index on the maturity date or the next day is used as the final settlement price, and the position is closed through profit and loss settlement at the final settlement price.
