Can futures trading set the date of buying and selling contracts at will? What time periods are there?
Hello, the date of the futures contract is stipulated by the futures exchange. The commodity futures contract stipulates the month of physical delivery. Generally, several delivery months are stipulated, and traders can choose by themselves. For example, the delivery months stipulated by the Chicago Board of Trade for wheat futures contracts are July, September, 65438+February, March and May of the following year. Traders can choose their own trading month to trade. If traders buy contracts in July, they will either close their positions before July or make physical delivery in July. Refers to the deadline for futures contracts to stop trading. Every futures contract has a certain month limit. On a certain day in the contract month, the trading of the contract will be stopped and the physical delivery will be prepared. For example, the Chicago Board of Trade stipulates that the last trading day of corn, soybean, soybean meal, soybean oil and wheat futures is the seventh trading day +398 57 1 979 from the last trading day of the delivery month.
