When BZG8 stops trading
Trading terminates the last business day of the second month preceding the contract month. For BZG8 that falls on December 31, 2027.
Senzoukria stops offering BZG8 as the default contract on December 27, 2027, 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
Energy contracts expire monthly, so the roll is a routine of every month rather than every quarter. Volume leaves the expiring month several sessions before its last trading day, and the spread between the two months widens as it does.
For BZG8 the next listed delivery is BZH8, whose last trading day is January 31, 2028. That is the contract the volume moves into, just as it moved out of BZF8 on November 26, 2027.
What one tick is worth on BZG8
The minimum price fluctuation is 0.01, which is $10.00 per contract on a multiplier of 1000. A full point is therefore $1,000.00. 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 0.01 sets how finely the bid and ask volume of BZ 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 BZG8 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.
Every BZ delivery listed in 2028
BZ lists 12 delivery months a year (F, G, H, J, K, M, N, Q, U, V, X, Z). BZG8 is number 2 of 12 in 2028.
