Crude Oil Rolls from March to April

Share this post:

Starting Tuesday, February 16th, trading activity (volume) in the March 2016 contract for Crude Oil (CLH6) will move to April 2016 Crude Oil (CLJ6), also known as the "roll." Per the Combine Rules, you must only trade the "active month" contracts for all products. 

Why does this matter to me?

To protect risk and avoid slippage, traders should trade the most active month. The most active month will be the product month with the most volume. This will start to shift to the new month starting on the date above. Follow the volume and you will be rolling into the most actively traded month.
