Origins of futures trading month abbreviations (F,G,H,J,K.)?
May 30th, 2008
Ken asked:
I am having a hard time trying to remember the corresponding abbreivations for each month:
January-F, February-G, March-H, April-J, May-K, June-M, July-N, Augus-O, September-U, October-V, November-X, December-Z
Does anyone know where these abbreviations arose from? Or…Is it just unavoidable jargon for futures trading?
