Further Out Months From Spot Month
Depending on the market your trading, can anything be discerned from looking at the relationship in price between the spot months and future months?

I notice for almost everything I trade (even bear markets) that the further months are always positively priced ahead of the spot month, I've never seen it the other way around.

Re: Further Out Months From Spot Month
Look up the terms "Contango" and "Backwardation" for more information on what you are asking about.
