CL HO and RBOB Settlement Examples
Example 1:
CL, RB, or HO Futures Settlement Description
Once the settlement of the designated active month has been derived, all other months, beginning with the nearest month and proceeding in chronological order, will settle using a VWAP of accumulated calendar spread transactions. Spread transactions must have traded between 14:28:00 - 14:30:00 ET, the calendar spread settlement period. For clarity, each month's settle will be derived using spread transactions in which the settling month is the deferred contract. (Example: during the month of October 2017 the March 18 settlement will take into account the spread trades occurring in Nov 17-Mch 18, Dec 17-Mch 18, Jan 18-Mch 18 and the Feb 18-Mch 18. A transaction in Mch 18-June 18 would not be used to settle the Mch 18.)
