What these terms mean
The Micro E-mini Dow Jones futures contract (MYM) is listed on Chicago Board of Trade. One contract represents $0.50 × Dow Jones Industrial Average, and prices are quoted in index points. The minimum price movement, or tick, is 1, worth $0.50 per contract. A move of one full point is therefore worth $0.50 per contract, and every profit, loss and margin figure for MYM scales from those two numbers.
MYM is listed for these contract months: Mar (H), Jun (M), Sep (U), Dec (Z). MYM is cash-settled: positions still open at expiry are closed against a final settlement price, with no delivery of anything. The rollover page lists the next expiries and the dates that matter for each.
The values on this page come from the exchange's own contract specification and were last checked on 27 Oct 2026.
