⚠️ Exchange fee increase starting the October 1, 2026 trading day

The CME is raising Exchange transaction fees on 2 products. Fees apply per side, so a round turn counts both entry and exit.

- MCL: $0.50 to $0.60 per side ($1.20 round turn)

- MNG: $0.60 to $0.70 per side ($1.40 round turn)

That's $0.10 more per side. Deducted automatically and shown in your trade activity.
