Futures are a type of derivative contract agreement to buy or sell a specific commodity asset or index at a set future date for a set price. The final price of the futures contract is determined by both a buyer and a seller.
Every Future has a specified date of the future payment. It is known as the expiration date. Futures trading is an interesting tool for investors, as they offer a lot of room for flexibility and strategy choices.

Futures expiration is ending the circulation on the exchange market of a standard exchange-traded futures contract. The expiration date of a futures contract is the last date when the contract can be traded. This date is fixed in the specification of the futures contract. You can see the expiry dates for futures contracts here.
Futures margin is the amount of money you must have in your brokerage account to protect both the trader and broker against possible losses on an open trade. It generally represents a much smaller percentage of the contract, typically 3-12% of the notional futures contract value.
Execution of a futures contract fulfills a legal obligation to deliver the contract related to that contract. Remember, this is an obligation, not a right, as with options, and this obligation must be fulfilled. For some contracts, the fulfillment of obligations takes the form of physical delivery of the underlying asset, but this is not the practice in online trading.
