You do not provide enough information.
Soybean contracts fluctuate $5000 for every point per contract. Margin on 1 contract is $4725. So if you bought one contract and rode it a full point in your favor, you’d more than double your money. If it dropped, you can risk up to $1,225 before you would get a margin call.
