Rollover dates
Please note that the Rollover Dates listed on the Upcoming Events Calendar are recommended by the Kraken orders desk. They are based on the anticipated shift in trading volume to provide more consistent and predictable trading. These dates may differ slightly from those suggested by other brokers or the automatic rollover settings in your trading platform.
Last Trade Dates
Once a contract reaches its Last Trade Date, new positions can no longer be opened. You may only close any existing positions. To continue trading the same instrument, you’ll need to roll over to the next available contract.
