Forward Contracts：
A forward contract specifies that a certain commodity will be exchanged for another at a specified time in the future at prices specified today.
Its not an option: both parties are expected to hold up their end of the deal.
If you have ever ordered a textbook that was not in stock, you have entered into a forward contract.
Futures Contracts: Preliminaries

It specifies that a certain commodity will be exchanged for another at a specified time in the future at prices specified today.
A futures contract is different from a forward:
Futures are standardized contracts trading on organized exchanges with daily resettlement (“marking to market”) through a clearinghouse.
