Spot Month

The month in a futures contract that is closest to its expiration date is commonly known as the spot or front month. This is the period during which the contract is most actively traded, as traders seek to close their positions or roll them over to the next month. It is important to monitor the front month closely as it can greatly impact the price and liquidity of the contract.
