CME Currencies Futures — Full Contract List
Every currencies futures contract we cover on CME Group exchanges — contract sizes, tick values, settlement type and trading months, in one sortable reference table.
CME FX futures are quoted as the foreign currency against the US dollar — the opposite convention to USD-first spot pairs like USD/JPY, which is the single most common source of confusion.
