When LEG9 stops trading
Trading terminates on the last business day of the contract month. For LEG9 that falls on February 28, 2029.
Senzoukria stops offering LEG9 as the default contract on February 24, 2029, 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
Livestock contracts follow the production calendar, so the listed months are uneven and the gap between two deliveries can be two months. The active month is the one carrying the volume.
For LEG9 the next listed delivery is LEJ9, whose last trading day is April 30, 2029. That is the contract the volume moves into.
What one tick is worth on LEG9
The minimum price fluctuation is 0.025, which is $10.00 per contract on a multiplier of 400. A full point is therefore $400.00. 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 0.025 sets how finely the bid and ask volume of LE 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 LEG9 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.
Every LE delivery listed in 2029
LE lists 6 delivery months a year (G, J, M, Q, V, Z). LEG9 is number 1 of 6 in 2029.
