Today, we have an important task to start the trading day: rolling over our contracts from December to March 2025. If you’re trading the E-mini S&P 500, the NASDAQ, crude oil, or other markets, this step is essential to keep your charts and trades up-to-date. Let me walk you through the process and share some insights from today’s session using the Sonic trading system.
