hi, my guestion is when is the right time to rollover contract months. my point is i would like to see exactly same data and same chart as everyone else and i can see that every single trader may rollover any day he wants. so, is there any RIGHT and ONLY ONE day when is OFFICIAL rollover day?

thank you

ps: is this (rollover rules) specified somewhere on exchange website?

For most this is the Thur before 2nd Fri. Expiration is the 3rd Fri.
