MNQH0 expiry: March 15, 2030

When MNQH0 stops trading

Trading terminates at 9:30 a.m. ET on the third Friday of the contract month. For MNQH0 that falls on March 15, 2030.

Senzoukria stops offering MNQH0 as the default contract on March 7, 2030, 8 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

Equity index liquidity moves to the next quarter in a single week, usually the one that contains the roll date. Order flow read on the old contract after that week is thin and misleading: the book empties, prints get sparse, and a footprint built on it shows gaps that are an artefact of the roll rather than of the auction.

For MNQH0 the next listed delivery is MNQM0, whose last trading day is June 21, 2030. That is the contract the volume moves into.

What one tick is worth on MNQH0

The minimum price fluctuation is 0.25, which is $0.50 per contract on a multiplier of 2. A full point is therefore $2.00. 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 0.25 sets how finely the bid and ask volume of MNQ 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 MNQH0 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.

Every MNQ delivery listed in 2030

MNQ lists 4 delivery months a year (H, M, U, Z). MNQH0 is number 1 of 4 in 2030.

MNQH0 and NQH0 side by side

MNQ and NQ track the same underlying, but NQ is 10 times the size of MNQ: $5.00 a tick against $0.50. Both quote on the same 0.25 tick. MNQH0 and NQH0 share the same last trading day, March 15, 2030, so a position in either rolls on the same date.

The practical difference is position sizing rather than behaviour. MNQ lets a 10-contract position carry the same exposure as one NQ, which makes partial exits possible on a small account; NQ carries the deeper book, so its footprint and its depth of market are the ones to read even when the position is held in MNQ.
