Futures Market is a simulated financial trading system integrated into Farming Simulator 25. It lets you trade commodity contracts through the game’s native interface while keeping physical crop production and sales separate from futures positions.
Features
- Trade simulated commodity contracts directly through the game’s native interface.
- Take LONG or SHORT positions, use leverage, manage margin and unrealized P&L, and let contracts settle automatically at the end of their term.
- Trade financial futures rather than physical delivery or crop-sales contracts. Crops remain yours to grow, harvest, store, and sell normally.
- Speculate on commodity price movements.
- Take LONG positions when expecting prices to rise. If the market rises, the position gains value; if the market falls, the position loses value.
- Take SHORT positions when expecting prices to fall. If the market falls, the position gains value; if the market rises, the position loses value.
- Use futures as a hedge against physical crop price risk. SHORT positions can be used to hedge physical production against falling commodity prices.
- Tracked products continuously fluctuate in price.
- The market dynamically discovers producible fill types instead of relying on a fixed list of supported crops, allowing it to work with the commodities available in your game and map environment.
- Positions are monitored against available margin. If a position moves too far against the account, the margin system can trigger an automatic force-close.
- Every contract has a defined term and automatically settles at the end of that term. Open positions can also be closed manually before expiration.
- Use the dedicated Futures Market interface to view live commodity prices, market movement, available commodities, active positions, direction, quantity, leverage, margin, unrealized P&L, and contract expiration.
- The overview displays active contracts, total margin, and unrealized P&L.
- A guided order wizard walks through: Direction → Commodity → Size & Leverage → Review & Confirm.
- No external applications or tools are required.
- Designed for multiplayer and dedicated-server environments.
- Trading actions are server-authoritative, including opening and closing positions, keeping shared-farm trading synchronized between players.
- Open futures positions are saved with the game. Contracts, trading information, and active positions survive a save and reload.
- This is a simulated financial market inside Farming Simulator 25. It is not connected to the real Chicago Board of Trade, CME, or any external financial market.
- Contracts do not represent physical crop deliveries, and normal farming operations remain completely separate from futures positions.
- For example, if you expect to harvest a large corn crop later in the season but are concerned that corn prices could fall before selling it, you can open a SHORT corn futures position. The physical corn is still harvested and sold normally, while the futures position produces a financial gain or loss based on the simulated market movement. The goal is to offset some of the financial impact of a declining commodity price.
Specifications
- Margin: 20%
- Leverage: up to 5×
- When opening a contract, the required margin is committed against the position instead of paying the full notional value.
- Leverage increases market exposure and the impact of price movement on the position, including potential gains and losses.
