Exchange Contract Month Codes

When using the Exchange Symbology Display Style, the following alphabetic letters will correlate with the following months:

  • January - F

  • February - G

  • March - H

  • April - J

  • May - K

  • June - M

  • July - N

  • August - Q

The KGI Crusoe Web will format Exchange Codes for futures instruments with the Instrument Symbol + Month Symbol + last digit of the year (with no spaces).

For example, March 2025 E-Mini S&P futures would have a symbol of ESH5.
