    Yes, traders can take or make delivery on futures contracts, but it depends on the broker and the product. Most retail brokers don't support delivery, but some do—typically under strict conditions.

    To participate in physical delivery, you'd need to go through a broker that allows it and follow the exchange’s rulebook for the specific contract. In most cases, the broker will require that you’re a bona fide hedger or otherwise involved in the physical market. You’ll also need to have sufficient funds in your account to cover the full notional value of the contract, along with any associated delivery and storage fees.
