FuturesCalc for Windows 10 - Full description
FuturesCalc is a derivatives calculator for futures and futures-options traders who need to estimate trade outcomes and check contract specifications. It covers 32 futures and 32 options contracts across major U.S. markets, including CBOT, CME, COMEX, ICE, IMM and NYMEX. Its calculations and reference details help traders compare contract values before placing or reviewing a position.
The main calculator estimates profit or loss for a trade and presents equivalent point, quote and cash values together. Seeing these measures side by side helps clarify how a price movement translates into a monetary result for a particular contract. FuturesCalc also displays key price specifications, including point value, minimum price fluctuation and daily limits, so traders can consult market-specific details while working through an estimate.
For each supported market, the program provides the exchange, contract code and delivery months. These references help identify the contract being analyzed and distinguish among its available expirations. Web links lead to exchanges, contract information and holiday schedules, giving users a route to related market resources when an internet connection is available. The central workflow remains focused on calculations and contract reference data rather than order entry or trade execution.
FuturesCalc can be used by professional traders comparing potential outcomes across futures and options contracts, as well as by newer market participants learning how contract prices, quotes and cash values relate. The combination of profit-and-loss estimates and specification details is useful when reviewing a prospective trade, checking a price move, or comparing contract characteristics across supported exchanges.
The software is shareware and is available in English. Its stated system requirements include a Pentium processor, 32 MB of RAM and 10 MB of hard drive space; an internet connection is optional for accessing web links. The supplied operating-system range includes Windows 10 as well as older Windows releases. FuturesCalc is a desktop reference and calculation tool, not a trading platform.
