Platforms that use CTS and Rithmic data will follow CME protocol on holidays and will often not clear trades to differentiate between different trading dates. This means that two trading days can be combined into one. P&L calculations will not reset and those two days will only count as one trading day.
TSTrader™ will clear trades during holidays. This means that everything will process for each trading day like normal.
Please see below for more information regarding specific holidays and if trades will be cleared.
