Futures CFDMetals
Palladium futures CFD XPDUSD
Palladium, the platinum group metal used in catalytic converters. TickerLayer prices every listed month of Palladium as a CFD with its own methodology, then publishes the front-month chain and four roll series on top: one symbol for whichever way your product rolls.
Palladium forward curve
The XPDUSD curve is not on this page right now. GET /futures/curve/XPDUSD returns every priced month on an account with Futures CFDs.
Price is the mid of bid and ask, in USD per troy ounce. Carry is the annualized change from the month before. A month whose book is too wide to trust is left off rather than shown with a misleading price.
Roll series
XPDUSD rolled four ways
Each series blends the front month with the next on its own schedule and reports the weight it holds on the next month. Pick the one that matches how your product rolls.
XPDUSD.R55-day rollMoves to the next month in five equal steps, one at each 17:00 New York close over business days 5 to 9 of the roll month.
XPDUSD.R5C5-day roll, continuousThe same five-day window, with the weight moving every second of each session instead of once a day.
XPDUSD.CYCLEFull-cycle rollMoves a little every weekday across the whole cycle, from the previous roll date to the next, so the series never jumps.
XPDUSD.NOTICERoll at first noticeHolds the front month and switches in one step at the first notice date, the last weekday before the contract month.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Palladium futures CFD?
XPDUSD is a contract for difference on Palladium futures that TickerLayer prices with its own methodology. Every listed contract month has its own symbol and the front-month chain and four roll series are built from those months. Prices are in USD per troy ounce. It is a calculated reference price, not a futures contract and not the official settlement price of any market.
How does XPDUSD.C1 roll to the next month?
XPDUSD.C1 is the front month, XPDUSD.C2 and XPDUSD.C3 the next two. The chain moves to the next month at 18:00 New York time on the roll date and carries raw prices with no adjustment, so it can step at each roll. The roll date of the current front month is in the roll_date field of every quote and in GET /futures/roll-calendar/XPDUSD.
What is the difference between XPDUSD.R5, XPDUSD.R5C, XPDUSD.CYCLE and XPDUSD.NOTICE?
All four blend the front month with the next one, on different schedules. R5 steps 20% a day over five business days of the roll month, R5C makes the same move second by second, CYCLE moves a little every weekday across the whole cycle, and NOTICE switches in one step at the first notice date. Each frame carries the weight on the next month, the two legs and their prices.
Which contract months does XPDUSD cover?
The chain walks through the MAR, JUN, SEP, DEC months, and every month the market lists is also available as a dated symbol for as long as it trades. GET /futures/contracts?base=XPDUSD lists them with their last trade, roll and first notice dates; GET /futures/curve/XPDUSD prices them all in one call.
How do I stream XPDUSD in real time?
Subscribe to the futures.quotes channel with XPDUSD.C1 or any other XPDUSD symbol. Add "rolls": ["r5", "cycle"] to the subscribe message to receive the roll series on the XPDUSD.C1 frames as well. Snapshots are sent on subscribe, and every frame carries a per-symbol sequence number and microsecond timestamps.
How do I get access to XPDUSD prices?
Products, contract months and roll calendars answer every API key, so you can integrate before you buy. Prices, the curve and the stream come with a Futures CFDs plan: Individual for your own use, Business for commercial use in your product, both with hosted checkout.
