LEZ9 (December 31, 2029)

When LEV9 stops trading

Trading terminates on the last business day of the contract month. For LEV9 that falls on October 31, 2029.

Senzoukria stops offering LEV9 as the default contract on October 27, 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 LEV9 the next listed delivery is LEZ9, whose last trading day is December 31, 2029. That is the contract the volume moves into, just as it moved out of LEQ9 on August 27, 2029.

What one tick is worth on LEV9

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 LEV9 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). LEV9 is number 5 of 6 in 2029.
