What Is Rollover in Futures Trading?

Modified on Sun, 30 Mar at 1:09 PM

Rollover refers to the process of switching from an expiring futures contract to the next available contract before the expiration date. In futures trading, contracts have set expiration dates, and traders must either close their positions before expiry or roll them over to continue holding a position.


  • At Taurus, traders are responsible for monitoring contract expirations and managing their positions accordingly.


  • Most futures contracts rollover on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on the instrument.


We recommend traders keep track of expiration dates and use our platform’s calendar to avoid disruptions.
