The date that matters on MGCZ6
The first notice day of MGCZ6 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.
MGCZ6 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 MGCZ6 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.
MGCZ6 is the last 2026 delivery listed for MGC, so the volume moves into the first 2027 contract.
What one tick is worth on MGCZ6
The minimum price fluctuation is 0.1, which is $1.00 per contract on a multiplier of 10. A full point is therefore $10.00. 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 MGC 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 MGCZ6 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.
Every MGC delivery listed in 2026
MGC lists 6 delivery months a year (G, J, M, Q, V, Z). MGCZ6 is number 6 of 6 in 2026.

MGCZ6 and GCZ6 side by side
MGC and GC 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. MGCZ6 and GCZ6 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 MGCZ6 stop being tradable in practice?
- The roll anchor of MGCZ6 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 MGCZ6?
- 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 MGCZ6 worth?
- One tick of 0.1 is $1.00 per contract, and a full point is $10.00, on a multiplier of 10.
- Does MGCZ6 really stop trading on November 26, 2026?
- No. MGCZ6 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.
