When 6CZ8 stops trading
Trading terminates at 9:16 a.m. CT on the second business day immediately preceding the third Wednesday of the contract month. For 6CZ8 that falls on December 18, 2028.
Senzoukria stops offering 6CZ8 as the default contract on December 14, 2028, 4 calendar days before that last trading day, and keeps it selectable with a badge. The date is computed from the exchange rule rather than stored. The engine counts Monday to Friday and holds no CME holiday table, so a date that falls next to a public holiday can be one day off the exchange calendar. Check the exchange calendar when the date sits close to a holiday.
When the volume actually leaves
Currency futures roll quarterly, and the open interest moves in the days around the roll rather than on the last trading day. The expiring month keeps quoting until delivery, but its book is too thin to read an auction on.
6CZ8 is the last 2028 delivery listed for 6C, so the volume moves into the first 2029 contract.
What one tick is worth on 6CZ8
The minimum price fluctuation is 0.00005, which is $5.00 per contract on a multiplier of 100000. A full point is therefore $100,000.00. On a footprint chart one row is one tick, so the same vertical space holds a different number of rows depending on the product: a tick of 0.00005 sets how finely the bid and ask volume of 6C can be read.
These are the values the app itself trades on, taken from its contract table rather than retyped, so the P&L shown on a 6CZ8 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.
Every 6C delivery listed in 2028
6C lists 4 delivery months a year (H, M, U, Z). 6CZ8 is number 4 of 4 in 2028.
