Futures rollover:
One ZCH5 contract sold at a price of 497.5.
One ZCK5 contract bought at a price of 518.0.
SL = 498.0
The corn futures price rose and fell dramatically while I was sleeping. My May25 buy order was triggered at the peak, but I only closed the Mar25 position at the trough when I woke up. The timing can definitely be improved.
Note to Self:
Use IBKR Conditional Order to close the front month position when the price of the next month contract hits the traded price of my order. (There is a chance that my front month position is closed out while my next month contract order is still unfilled. But that possibility should be remote.)
Total ZCK5 position is now long 1 contract.
Stop-Loss for the entire position is now at 498.0.
