    can someone explain to me how it would work if contracts are negative and I'm buying in order to take delivery. let's say I buy a futures contract for delivery of 1 barrel of oil and it $-10.

    So that means I receive $10 and the oil. What is my cost? The cost of storage? the cost of delivery? Any other costs?
