Every MGC delivery listed in 2026

MGC trades 6 delivery months in 2026 (G, J, M, Q, V, Z). Dates are computed from the exchange rule rather than stored. The engine counts Monday to Friday and holds no CME holiday table, so a date next to a public holiday can be one day off the exchange calendar.

The letter in a contract symbol is its delivery month: G = February, J = April, M = June, Q = August, V = October, Z = December. The digit that follows is the year.

The rule that sets these dates

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 the volume moves between these months

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.

What one tick of MGC is worth

The minimum price fluctuation is 0.1, which is $1.00 per contract on a multiplier of 10. A full point is $10.00. These are the values the app itself trades on, so the rows of a MGC footprint and the P&L on a MGC position come from the same numbers.
