Hi All, I have a question i haven been able to clarify if anyone can help.

What happens to your future contract if it is left open and the trading day closes at 15:15 Chicago time, does the position automatically close or will it remain open for after hours trading?

Also the same thing but this time the contract month is finishing does that mean you have to get rig of any contracts you have for that period?

Where is a limited order stored? example; I use Ninja Trader, so i place a limited order with a stop loss and it gets filled. So now if i leave Ninja Trader on and the stop loss is hit the position exits. But what happens if Ninja Trader crashed and the stop loss is hit while the program is offline does the stop loss only work while Ninja Trader is online or is the full order stored on the broker or exchange server and gets executed regardless weather Ninja is online or not?

Thanks for your help
