Contract rolls. A continuous front-month series is two different contracts either side of a roll, and the change across that seam measures the calendar spread rather than the tape. Gold: the two closes belong to two different contracts (GCU26.CMX then GCV26.CMX) — the change is the calendar spread, not a session move. The level shown is current; the change is withheld.
