Ultra Future Funding follows the CME Group holiday schedule. On holiday and early-close days, the normal 4:10 PM ET flat rule moves earlier.
Our Rule on Early-Close Days
All positions must be closed 10 minutes before the CME halt or close time for that day. Open positions after that time are automatically liquidated.
On full-closure days there is no trading.
The exact close time is shown in the platform, and we will announce holiday hours by email ahead of time.
