Futures are forward commodities and tangible objects.

To put it simply, for example, you and I agreed to buy my soybeans in ten months. There is no soybean at present, and this future soybean is futures.

Option is a kind of right, which is not necessarily related to futures. The target may be stocks, bonds, etc. Or futures. Take this as an example.

We agreed that after ten months, you can buy my soybean at the price of 1 yuan per catty, but after ten months, the price of soybean is uncertain, which may be higher than 1 yuan and lower than 1 yuan. You may or may not buy it (the market price is 3 yuan), so you have the right. This is an option, and it is a call option.

Ask me if you have any questions. 、
