When MNGH9 stops trading
Trading terminates 3 business days prior to the first day of the delivery month. For MNGH9 that falls on February 26, 2029.
Senzoukria stops offering MNGH9 as the default contract on February 22, 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
Energy contracts expire monthly, so the roll is a routine of every month rather than every quarter. Volume leaves the expiring month several sessions before its last trading day, and the spread between the two months widens as it does.
For MNGH9 the next listed delivery is MNGJ9, whose last trading day is March 28, 2029. That is the contract the volume moves into, just as it moved out of MNGG9 on January 25, 2029.
What one tick is worth on MNGH9
The minimum price fluctuation is 0.001, which is $1.00 per contract on a multiplier of 1000. A full point is therefore $1,000.00. 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 0.001 sets how finely the bid and ask volume of MNG 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 MNGH9 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.
Every MNG delivery listed in 2029
MNG lists 12 delivery months a year (F, G, H, J, K, M, N, Q, U, V, X, Z). MNGH9 is number 3 of 12 in 2029.

MNGH9 and NGH9 side by side
MNG and NG track the same underlying, but NG is 10 times the size of MNG: $10.00 a tick against $1.00. Both quote on the same 0.001 tick. MNGH9 and NGH9 share the same last trading day, February 26, 2029, so a position in either rolls on the same date.
The practical difference is position sizing rather than behaviour. MNG lets a 10-contract position carry the same exposure as one NG, which makes partial exits possible on a small account; NG carries the deeper book, so its footprint and its depth of market are the ones to read even when the position is held in MNG.
