Tax rate trading DJ STOXX 50

mean I traded the wrong month last night?

ESTX50 Dec contract?

was it that much less liquid than Sep?

seemed to move pretty good without a large spread

in anycase ... I will note that Sep rolls over this week
to Dec

thanks
 
There is already plenty of liquidity in the Dec Euro Stoxx contracts. In fact, if you are going to hold your position through the weekend, I would suggest the Dec contracts anyway.

Today 636k Sep contracts traded and 270k Dec contracts. That's probably an unnoticable difference in liquidity and resulting spreads for a retail trader.
 
Yes, tomorrow the Dec contract becomes the front month contract for the ESTX50 and DAX. Tomorrow, if you are in a long term position in the Sep contracts you should roll into the Dec contracts and if you are initiating a new position, you should use the Dec contracts.
 
Thank you Aaron,
It's funny, I have always traded the current contract until its last trading day.
I guess there isn't such a big difference on this 2 rollover days ?
 
I'm sorry but the December contract had a much wider spread today.
And the Dec. daily volume is still lower than Sep. contract.
I keep trading the Sep.02 until Monday.
