The date that matters on PLN8
The first notice day of PLN8 is June 30, 2028, the last business day of the month preceding delivery. Senzoukria anchors its roll two business days earlier, on June 28, 2028.
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.
PLN8 itself keeps quoting until its official last trading day, July 27, 2028, 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 PLN8 as the default contract on June 24, 2028, 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.
For PLN8 the next listed delivery is PLV8, whose roll anchor is September 27, 2028. That is the contract the volume moves into, just as it moved out of PLJ8 on March 25, 2028.
What one tick is worth on PLN8
The minimum price fluctuation is 0.1, which is $5.00 per contract on a multiplier of 50. A full point is therefore $50.00. 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 PL 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 PLN8 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.
Every PL delivery listed in 2028
PL lists 4 delivery months a year (F, J, N, V). PLN8 is number 3 of 4 in 2028.

Frequently asked questions
- When does PLN8 stop being tradable in practice?
- The roll anchor of PLN8 is June 28, 2028. 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 PLN8?
- The app switches its default to the next listed month on June 24, 2028, which is PLV8. 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 PLN8 worth?
- One tick of 0.1 is $5.00 per contract, and a full point is $50.00, on a multiplier of 50.
- Does PLN8 really stop trading on June 28, 2028?
- No. PLN8 keeps quoting until July 27, 2028, the third-to-last business day of its delivery month. June 28, 2028 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.
