Thanks, very clearly explained. Heres a thing I dont get though, say I buy a 3 month cocoa future. Nearing expiry I dont want delivery of cocoa, so I sell an equivalent offsetting future to close out the position. Doesnt that mean that someone is now expecting ME to delivery cocoa to them? And also as I closed the position, how do I receive my profit?

Hi, thank you for this presentation.

I am student in finance. Can anyone help me with basis ?
I would like to know what is the main difference between CIM Basis Swap spread and Cross Currency basis Swap Spread ?

Thank you in advance.

Also last question if you don't mind...if the futures price is $120 and the cash price is $100, then why is basis negative 20 and not positive 20?

What's complicated with Futures is the made up gibberish replacing simple expressions... and everyone their own little variation.
