Commodity exchanges are the most highly organized commodity markets, and are markets that place standard commodity futures trading at the center of trading. Futures trading is a transaction in which goods can be bought and sold under the condition that they will be delivered by a certain date, even if the goods are not prepared at the time the purchase and sale is agreed upon. Standard commodity futures trading is a futures transaction in which a certain brand is determined to be the standard product, and a brand that can be delivered at a certain price difference based on that standard product is selected. In futures trading, as long as a margin of about 10% of the total price of the product is paid as collateral, it is possible to sell the product even if you do not own it, and to buy the product even if you have no intention of taking delivery of the product.
