A futures contract is a derivative instrument. It is a standardized contract, traded on a futures exchange, to buy or sell a certain underlying instrument at a certain date in the future, at a specified price. For instance, a stock futures contract represents a commitment to buy or sell a predefined amount of the underlying stock at a predetermined price on a specified future date.
An option is a contract that involves two parties, a buyer and a seller. An option contract is an agreement in which the buyer has the right to exercise by buying or selling an asset at a set price on or before a future date; and the seller has the obligation to honor the terms of the contract.
