Settlement at Trading Tick / Settlement at Clearing Tick

If no rounding occurs (the product is not subject to rounding and the CME Globex trading tick is the same as the settlement tick for the product), a single Market Data Incremental Refresh (tag 35-MsgType=X) message is sent on the incremental feed with:

  • tag 269-MDEntryType=6 (Settlement Price)

  • tag 270-MDEntryPx - the price value on the CME Clearing settlement tick

  • tag 731-SettlPriceType Bit 2 = 0 (Settlement at Clearing Tick)

  • tag 5796-TradingReferenceDate

If rounding occurs, two Market Data Incremental Refresh (tag 35-MsgType=X) messages are sent on the Incremental feed.

Message with unrounded price value:

  • tag 269-MDEntryType=6 (Settlement Price)

  • tag 270-MDEntryPX - price value on CME Clearing settlement tick

  • tag 731-SettlPriceType Bit 2 = 0 (Settlement at Clearing Tick)

  • tag 5796-TradingReferenceDate

Message with rounded price value:

  • tag 269-MDEntryType=6 (Settlement Price)

  • tag 270-MDEntryPX - price value rounded to CME Globex trading tick

  • tag 731-SettlPriceType Bit 2 = 1 (Settlement at Trading Tick)

  • tag 5796-TradingReferenceDate

Settlement at Trading Tick Example

Some CME Group products have a mini-sized product listed along with the full-sized product (e.g., e-mini, e-micro, and miNY products). In many cases, mini-sized products are marked to market and margined using their corresponding full-sized contract settlement.

The trading tick of the mini-product is not always equal to the settlement/trading tick of the full-sized product. For example, given:

  • Gold (GC) futures ticks at .10

  • E-mini Gold (QO) futures ticks at .25

  • Gold (GC) futures settles to an actual preliminary settlement price at 2746.20

Settlement price sent for the standard or full-sized contract.
