Tuesday June 30, 2015 - IMPORTANT for TONIGHT - ALL CME market openings

DELAYED - due to "Leap Second Impact"

 

CME Group uses Network Time Protocol (NTP) to synchronize time for CME

Globex systems to maintain effective time accuracy. On Tuesday, June 30

(trade date Wednesday, July 1), a positive leap second will be added

after 18:59:59 Central Time (CT). A leap second is a one-second

adjustment that is added to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) to account

for variability of the earth’s rotation.

 

To facilitate the Leap Second change and prevent any issues on CME Globex

systems, all CME Globex products will have a delayed open at 7:45pm CST

(Chicago), 7:30pm CST (Chicago) Pre-open, on Tuesday, June 30 (trade date

Wednesday, July 1). If a CME Globex product’s regularly scheduled open

is post 7:45pm CST, then that product will open regularly as scheduled.

 

This is a ONE-DAY impact - TONIGHT only, that will cause ALL CME evening

market openings to be delayed until 7:45 pm CST!

 

This will ONLY impact those traders that intend to be active in the first

few hours of evening trading, tonight!

 

All market PRE-openings will be delayed until 7:30 pm CST, with ALL

markets opening for trading at 7:45 pm CST.

 

 

Cheers!
