Oil options are another way to buy oil. Options contracts give the buyer or seller the option to trade oil on a future date. If you choose to buy futures or options directly in oil, you will need to trade them on a commodities exchange.

If your linked margin brokerage account already has sufficient funds, there is no need to make additional transfers to separately fund futures trading. The minimum margin requirement for futures positions held overnight will be automatically transferred to your E*TRADE futures account, including commission and fees, and any deficiency funds required to satisfy margin calls. Conversely, any excess margin and available cash will be automatically transferred back to your margin brokerage account where SIPC protection is available.


If a futures position is held overnight, customers must margin their futures account with 100% of exchange minimum margin requirements. Futures account intraday margining for all products except Bitcoin is 50% of initial margin requirements. These requirements can be increased at any time.

The amount of initial margin is small relative to the value of the futures contract. A relatively small market movement will have a proportionately larger impact on the funds you have deposited or will have to deposit, which may work against you as well as for you. You may sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and any additional funds deposited with E*TRADE to maintain your position. If the market moves against your positions or margin levels are increased, you may be called upon by E*TRADE to pay substantial additional funds on short notice to maintain your position or your position may be liquidated at a loss by E*TRADE and you will be liable for any resulting deficit. As a general matter, E*TRADE does not permit physical delivery of commodities or digital assets. Customers that hold futures to maturity may be subject to immediate liquidation including at a loss and appliable fees.


Other than CME Equity Index contracts, which trade 24/6, all other futures markets are available through the E*TRADE platform nearly 24 hours a day, six days a week (Sunday 5 p.m. CT to Friday 4 p.m. CT). For more information on futures contract trade specifications, including, tick size, tick value, margin requirements, and trading hours, visit etrade.com/futures.


Equity index futures are one of the most popular futures contracts, providing another way for investors to trade on price movement in the stock market. These include the CME E-mini S&P 500 mentioned above, plus the CME E-mini Nasdaq and CME E-mini Russell 2000.


So, if you have a profitable futures position on a given day, the amount of your profits will show up as cash in your futures account. On the other hand, if you have a losing futures position on a given day, the amount of your losses will come out of your futures account.


To simplify the transfer of funds, your futures account may be directly linked to your regular brokerage account. This gives you access to automatically have the correct amount of initial margin moved into your futures account when you're placing a trade. By default excess funds are automatically moved out of your futures account and back into your regular brokerage account at the end of each trading day. You always have the option to do this yourself, but we try to make it easy. 041b061a72
