When 6JU8 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 6JU8 that falls on September 18, 2028.

Senzoukria stops offering 6JU8 as the default contract on September 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.

For 6JU8 the next listed delivery is 6JZ8, whose last trading day is December 18, 2028. That is the contract the volume moves into, just as it moved out of 6JM8 on June 15, 2028.

What one tick is worth on 6JU8

The minimum price fluctuation is 0.0000005, which is $6.25 per contract on a multiplier of 12500000. A full point is therefore $12,500,000.00. 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 0.0000005 sets how finely the bid and ask volume of 6J 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 6JU8 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.

Every 6J delivery listed in 2028

6J lists 4 delivery months a year (H, M, U, Z). 6JU8 is number 3 of 4 in 2028.
