Excuse me, isn't the price of futures stipulated in advance at the beginning of the period? Why does it change with time? Can you give me an example? thank you
The price of futures was not stipulated at first.

For example, the copper price of 1309 contract is now 50,000, which means that the spot price of 13 in September is expected to be 5. 1 10,000 tons. However, it is not yet September, and the market economy is constantly changing. Therefore, the expected price will also change constantly. If the country launches a stimulus plan, it is expected that the consumption of copper will increase, so the price will rise. The essence of futures is to reflect the expected price.
