positions and clients can choose from all traded months or regular
cycle months. For example, the Euro-dollar contract’s regular cycle
month consists of March, June, September and December since the
majority of liquidity is held on those quarterly months. Additional
contract futures months are added on customer requests and back
histories calculated.
