BZQ8 expiry: June 30, 2028

When BZQ8 stops trading

Trading terminates the last business day of the second month preceding the contract month. For BZQ8 that falls on June 30, 2028.

Senzoukria stops offering BZQ8 as the default contract on June 26, 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

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 BZQ8 the next listed delivery is BZU8, whose last trading day is July 31, 2028. That is the contract the volume moves into, just as it moved out of BZN8 on May 27, 2028.

What one tick is worth on BZQ8

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 BZQ8 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.
