On 17/05 evening my platform is also showing Emini S&P SEPT.10. So when when does the current June 10 contract end. Bruce/KB have you started trading the new one or when do you start using it.

Rollover happens in the same month as expiration so won't be until June. Rollover is on a Thursday 8 days before expiration, which in turn is on the third Friday of the month.

Why I asked this question is because now we have two different numbers influencing the same cantract. What I mean is that one contract say open at 1125 and the other at 1127. In a retrace orcontinuation the market will start to react at two prices instead of one. Spooky........

A fellow trader asked me this question
"DEAR AK1, PLZ HELP ME. HOW I CAN USE PIOVOT POINT. WHEN I SHOULD BUY/SELL. WHAT IS MIDPOINT???"
My opinion is that pivot points are best if used after 10:00 est and you have the capacity to hold overnight. Small accounts don't survive this approach. Mid point is the 50% price or High+Low/2
