Per the Trading Combine® Rules, you must only trade in the "active month" contract for each product.
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.
