Know your market.

"Trading terminates 3 business day prior to the 25th calendar day of the month prior to the contract month. If the 25th calendar day is not a business day, trading terminates 4 business days prior to the 25th calendar day of the month prior to the contract month."

are CL traders move to trade the next expiration a few days before such as in the ES (the Thursday before expiration)?

Just keep both months up. When you see the volume flip from one month to the next, you just follow along.

Google can give you the roll over dates you are looking for.

You could also just look at volume to know when its best to move contracts.

Why do it yourself when there is a bored dumbass willing to post it.

I would start trading the NOV crude on 9.18.20 which is Friday and also the day all Sept. equities expire.

Rule of thumb

If the last trading day falls Monday to Wednesday, trade the current contract till Friday, switch on Monday.

If the last trading day falls Thursday or Friday, trade the current contract till Tuesday, switch on Wednesday.

Pretty simple. Just switch over when the second contract's volume equals or exceeds the expiring contract's volume....either intraday or EOD volume totals.

Must be an echo in here.
