When ZLV7 stops trading
Trading terminates on the business day preceding the 15th calendar day of the contract month. For ZLV7 that falls on October 14, 2027.
Senzoukria stops offering ZLV7 as the default contract on October 10, 2027, 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
Grain contracts follow the crop calendar rather than the quarter, so the listed months are uneven and the roll dates do not fall at regular intervals. The active month is the one carrying the volume, not the nearest by date.
For ZLV7 the next listed delivery is ZLZ7, whose last trading day is December 14, 2027. That is the contract the volume moves into, just as it moved out of ZLU7 on September 10, 2027.
What one tick is worth on ZLV7
The minimum price fluctuation is 0.01, which is $6.00 per contract on a multiplier of 600. A full point is therefore $600.00. 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 0.01 sets how finely the bid and ask volume of ZL 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 ZLV7 position and the rows of its footprint come from the same numbers.
Every ZL delivery listed in 2027
ZL lists 8 delivery months a year (F, H, K, N, Q, U, V, Z). ZLV7 is number 7 of 8 in 2027.
