How does trading futures differ from stocks?

One can own a stock, but trading futures requires one to contract for the futures. Buying stocks gives you ownership (or your own share) in a part of the company that you're buying into. Trading futures, one enters into a contract for a particular commodity instead of actually buying into it. You can then contract to be a buyer or a seller of that commodity.

What are Dow Jones futures?

The Chicago Board of Trade's DJIA Futures contract is a futures contract on the entire Dow Jones Industrial Average. This one's REALLY weird, so hang on:The value of this contract is 10 times the Dow Jones Industrial Average. If the Dow is 10,000 today, the price of a futures contract on it is $100,000.Next, on the date of settlement cash is delivered, not 300 shares of stock.Third, this futures contract requires daily settlement payments, and this is why the DJIA futures contract is so weird. You and I are counterparties to one of these things. You're the futures buyer, or the long; I am the futures seller, or the short. The Dow was at 9000 when we did the deal, so you paid me $90,000, which went into my brokerage account. If the Dow closes tomorrow at 9010, I have to pay you $100--ten times the delta in the Dow. Similarly, if the Dow closes tomorrow at 8990, you pay me $100.

What is the difference between foreign exchange and currency futures?

Foreign Exchange (Forex) is everything that has to do with converting one currency to the other. You often see foreign exchange market, foreign exchange transaction, foreign exchange rate. Foreign exchange rate is simply a rate at which you can convert one currency to the other, a price of one currency expressed in the other currency. For example if you see EUR/USD 1.30, this means you can buy one Euro for 1.30 US Dollars. 1.30 is the eur/usd forex rate. Futures are financial contracts that set the price for delivery in the future. There are futures on almost all asset classes, including currency. An example of currency future would be a contract to sell 1 Million EUR against USD for a price (rate) of 1.30 USD per EUR in 3 months.
