A futures contract for aluminium is a standardized, exchange-traded contract in which the contract buyer agrees to take delivery of aluminium at a predetermined price from the seller on a future delivery date.

CME Group Inc. is an American global markets company. It is the world's largest financial derivatives exchange and trades in asset classes that include agricultural products, currencies, energy, interest rates, metals, stock indexes and cryptocurrencies futures.

The CME stated, "The top 25 aluminium futures volume days have all occurred since April, with nearly 150 new accounts trading since May."

The LME aluminium price attained a record high of $4,073.50 a tonne in early March due to supply insufficiency caused by Ukraine-Russia geopolitical crisis. However, prices have fallen by more than 40% since then.
