Copper futures settled above $6.64 per pound on September 10, 2026. The settlement price confirmed the daily trading range for the active-month contract. Market data from Robinhood shows the price held steady throughout the session. The contract resolved based on the specified December 2026 futures reference.

Traders observed the price action across multiple timeframes. The one-day chart reflected the final settlement value. The one-week view captured the broader trend leading into the resolution date. Maximum historical data provides context for the current valuation. No significant spikes were recorded during the trading hours.

Settlement Mechanics and Contract Details

The contract references the active-month copper futures rather than the front-month. This change aligns with standard clearing procedures. Payouts typically occur within one hour of event resolution. Participants can close positions before the final settlement. Fees apply to the transaction and settlement process.

Trading hours run 24 hours a day. A brief pause occurs on Wednesday mornings. The specific window is from 3:00 to 3:15 AM Eastern Time. This schedule supports global liquidity. The event contract structure allows for continuous price discovery.

Related Metal Performance Metrics

Silver futures targeted $67.322 in the same period. Gold futures showed a target of $4,399.89. Platinum index futures also settled on September 10. Palladium contracts resolved on both September 10 and September 30. These metals track copper in broad industrial demand signals.

The copper target of $6.86071 appears in short-term metrics. This figure differs from the daily settlement price. Short-term targets may reflect intraday volatility. The daily settlement remains the primary reference for contracts. Investors monitor both metrics for liquidity insights.

Market Context and Risk Factors

Futures trading involves significant risk. The instruments are not suitable for all investors. Personal financial circumstances must be considered carefully. Event contracts carry specific disclosure requirements. Live data may be delayed or incorrect. Investors should review full terms and conditions.
