The date that matters on GCZ6

The first notice day of GCZ6 is November 30, 2026, the last business day of the month preceding delivery. Senzoukria anchors its roll two business days earlier, on November 26, 2026.

This date is not the last trading day. A metal contract keeps quoting into its delivery month, but past the first notice day it is deliverable, liquidity collapses, and most brokers and prop firms liquidate what is left. Senzoukria therefore anchors its roll two business days before the first notice day and never offers a contract already in its delivery period.

GCZ6 itself keeps quoting until its official last trading day, December 29, 2026, the third-to-last business day of its delivery month, but that session sits inside the delivery period and is not where the volume is.

Senzoukria stops offering GCZ6 as the default contract on November 22, 2026, 4 calendar days before that roll anchor, 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

Metal contracts stay quoted into their delivery month, but the volume leaves before the first notice day. The active month is rarely the one whose name matches the calendar, so checking the date rather than the month name is the habit that avoids trading a dying contract.

GCZ6 is the last 2026 delivery listed for GC, so the volume moves into the first 2027 contract.

What one tick is worth on GCZ6

The minimum price fluctuation is 0.1, which is $10.00 per contract on a multiplier of 100. A full point is therefore $100.00. 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 0.1 sets how finely the bid and ask volume of GC 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 GCZ6 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.

Every GC delivery listed in 2026

GC lists 6 delivery months a year (G, J, M, Q, V, Z). GCZ6 is number 6 of 6 in 2026.

GCZ6 and MGCZ6 side by side

GC and MGC track the same underlying, but GC is 10 times the size of MGC: $10.00 a tick against $1.00. Both quote on the same 0.1 tick. GCZ6 and MGCZ6 share the same roll anchor, November 26, 2026, so a position in either rolls on the same date.

The practical difference is position sizing rather than behaviour. MGC lets a 10-contract position carry the same exposure as one GC, which makes partial exits possible on a small account; GC carries the deeper book, so its footprint and its depth of market are the ones to read even when the position is held in MGC.

Frequently asked questions

When does GCZ6 stop being tradable in practice?
The roll anchor of GCZ6 is November 26, 2026. The first notice day is the last business day of the month preceding the delivery month; the official last trading day is the third-to-last business day of the delivery month itself. This date is not the last trading day. A metal contract keeps quoting into its delivery month, but past the first notice day it is deliverable, liquidity collapses, and most brokers and prop firms liquidate what is left. Senzoukria therefore anchors its roll two business days before the first notice day and never offers a contract already in its delivery period.
When should I roll out of GCZ6?
The app switches its default to the next listed month on November 22, 2026. In practice the volume moves before the calendar does, so compare the traded volume and open interest of the two months rather than waiting for the roll anchor.
How much is one tick of GCZ6 worth?
One tick of 0.1 is $10.00 per contract, and a full point is $100.00, on a multiplier of 100.
Does GCZ6 really stop trading on November 26, 2026?
No. GCZ6 keeps quoting until December 29, 2026, the third-to-last business day of its delivery month. November 26, 2026 is the roll anchor Senzoukria uses, two business days before the first notice day, because past that point the contract is deliverable and the liquidity is gone.
