@SMCJB

Do you have the date for tier 1 jump from 2050 to 2475. NG went from 2000 to 2050 on 5/18/2021...but somehow I missed the date for 2475 jump?

CME does not list it on the historical Margins list yet? That I can find.

NG Margin increase effective COB August 31st, 2021

Maintenance margin's increasing as follows (Note: Non-member initial margin rates will be 110% of these)

Tier 1 / Oct21 from $2700 to $3150 +$450
Tier 2 / Nov21 from $2550 to $3000 +$450
Tier 3-6 / Dec21-Mar22 from $2400 to $2850 +$450

Note with the expiration of Sep last week,
- Oct moved from Tier 2 to Tier 1. So effectively Oct went from $2550 to $2700 on Fri 27th and then from $2700 to $3150 on Tue 31st for a total change of $600 or 23.5% in 3 trading days!
- Similarly Nov moved out of the Winter/Tier 3-7 grouping and into Tier 2. So effectively Nov went from $2400 to $2550 on Fri 27th and then from $2550 to $3000 on Tue 31st for a total change of $600 or 25% in 3 trading days!

@bob666s the ICE end of season futures contract is 3495/3530 this morning with a settlement of 3510 last night, so very close to what you have.

Doesn't trade that often. Traded 3495 last Friday and 3490-3500 last Thursday. Prior to that hadn't traded since Aug 6th (which was 3510).

Interesting they didn't raise Mar inline with the rest of the winter and that they raised April but not the rest of the summer.
