Data is from Yahoo Finance and may be delayed about 10–15 minutes for some contracts. Futures involve substantial risk of loss. Not financial advice.

Why use it

Less scanning, faster awareness

Every benefit below describes something the Futures page actually does. It helps you see moves sooner; it does not predict them.

22 contracts, one screen

Index futures, energy, metals, grains & softs, rates and FX in a single board, instead of 22 separate quote tabs.

Biggest movers surfaced for you

Top gainers and top losers (top 5 each) update with the category you pick, so the contracts moving most are always at the top.

SURGE, DUMP and 5M flags

Live Movers flags contracts up 2%+ or down 2%+ on the day and 0.3%+ in about five minutes, so you do not have to scan the board by eye.

Live alerts bubble

Alerts from the same feed and rules as the Day Trading page sit at the top of the page. Included with the $19/mo Alerts plan.

Know if the market is open

A Futures status tile shows Globex open/closed, the next break or reopen, and how old the data is.

Context at a glance

Last price, change vs prior settlement, % change, day range, volume and an intraday sparkline for every contract. Click a contract to open its chart.

Search and filter fast

Category tabs and a search box (try Gold, CL or corn) get you to the contract you want in a keystroke.

Free to start

The full board is open to everyone with no account. You only pay if you want the live alert panels.

Honest about the data

Source and delay are stated on the page and below. Alerts Pro labels movers as detected by its own rules, not as an outside signal.

Screenshots

The real Futures page

Screenshots of the public Futures page as a logged-out visitor sees it, captured Oct 18, 2026 with live data (possibly delayed). The live alerts bubble and Live Movers panel are blurred without the Alerts plan, exactly as in the product.

How it works

From open page to spotted move in four steps

1

Open the board

Go to the Futures page. The board loads 22 front-month contracts with last price, change, % change, day range, volume and a sparkline. No login needed.

2

Narrow down

Pick Index, Energy, Metals, Grains & softs or Rates & FX, or search by name or symbol. Top gainers and losers follow your category.

3

Watch the movers

Live Movers detects SURGE, DUMP and 5M moves from the live board. The live alerts bubble at the top adds alerts from the Day Trading feed. Both are unlocked by the $19/mo Alerts plan.

4

Dig into a contract

Click any row to open its chart, and check the Futures status tile to see whether Globex is open and how fresh the data is.

How Live Movers decides

  • SURGE Contract is up 2% or more versus the prior settlement.
  • DUMP Contract is down 2% or more versus the prior settlement.
  • 5M Contract moved 0.3% or more since about five minutes ago.

Detected by Alerts Pro from the live board; this is not an external alert feed and not a trade signal.

Data source and delay

Quotes are front-month futures from Yahoo Finance, which can be delayed about 10–15 minutes for some CME contracts. The board refreshes frequently, and if the source is slow the page says so and shows the last good snapshot. Change and % change are measured against the prior settlement. Data may be delayed, incomplete or unavailable, and is for information only.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Futures page free?

Yes. The Futures board, summary tiles, top gainers and losers and category tabs are open to everyone, including logged-out visitors. The two live-alert panels on the page (the live alerts bubble at the top and the Live Movers panel) are included with the $19/month Alerts plan, and also with Full Desk ($49/month).

Which futures are on the board?

22 front-month contracts. Index: E-mini S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, Dow and Russell 2000. Energy: WTI crude, natural gas, RBOB gasoline, heating oil. Metals: gold, silver, copper, platinum. Grains & softs: corn, soybeans, wheat, coffee, sugar, cotton. Rates & FX: 10-year T-Note, 30-year T-Bond, US Dollar Index and the VIX volatility index.

Is the data real-time?

Not guaranteed. Quotes come from Yahoo Finance front-month futures data, which can be delayed about 10-15 minutes for some CME contracts. The page shows how old the last refresh is and notes when the data source is slow and a last good snapshot is being shown. Do not use it as an execution-grade price feed.

What are SURGE, DUMP and 5M in Live Movers?

They are labels Alerts Pro assigns from the live board itself, not from an external alert service. SURGE means a contract is up 2% or more on the day, DUMP means down 2% or more on the day, and 5M means it moved 0.3% or more since about five minutes earlier.

What does the live alerts bubble at the top show?

It uses the same alert feed and rules as the Day Trading page, and it is unlocked by the $19/month Alerts plan. Without a plan it appears blurred with a prompt to subscribe.

Which plan do I need?

None to use the board. The $19/month Alerts plan unlocks the live alerts bubble and the Live Movers panel. Full Desk ($49/month) includes everything in Alerts plus Live Alerts, Calculator, Portfolio, Congressional Trades and Paper Trading.

Does Alerts Pro place futures trades for me?

No. The Futures page is a monitoring and alerting tool. It does not place orders, and nothing on it is a recommendation to buy or sell any contract.

When is the futures market open?

The page shows a Futures status tile based on CME Globex hours in Eastern Time: a daily break at 5:00 PM ET, reopening 6:00 PM ET, and a weekly close from Friday 5:00 PM ET until Sunday 6:00 PM ET. Exchange holidays and special hours can differ, so check the exchange for exact schedules.

Risk disclosure: trading futures involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor; you can lose more than your initial margin.

Market data may be delayed, inaccurate or unavailable. Past moves do not indicate future results, and no returns are promised or implied.
