Currency futures are futures contracts for currencies that specify the price of exchanging one currency for another at a future date. The rate for currency futures contracts is derived from spot rates of the currency pair. Currency futures are used to hedge the risk of receiving payments in a foreign currency.

To calculate the forward rate, multiply the spot rate by the ratio of interest rates and adjust for the time until expiration. So, the forward rate is equal to the spot rate x (1 + domestic interest rate) / (1 + foreign interest rate). As an example, assume the current U.S. dollar-to-euro exchange rate is $1.1365.

Futures or FX futures for short, are a type of futures contract to exchange a currency for another at a fixed exchange rate on a specific date in the future. Since the value of the contract is based on the underlying currency exchange rate, currency futures are considered a financial derivative.

In travel, the exchange rate is defined by how much money, or the amount of a foreign currency, that you can buy with one US dollar. The exchange rate defines how many pesos, euros, or baht you can get for one US dollar (or what the equivalent of one dollar will buy in another country).

For those traders who want to take their contract to expiration, there are two ways an FX contract can be settled: cash settlement or physical delivery of the currency. For many FX futures, the last trading day is generally the second business day prior to the third Wednesday of the contract month.
