Why two percentage changes can differ
Using the archived inputs, (1,321.25 ÷ 1,320.50 − 1) × 100 rounds to +0.06%. Comparing the same quote with the separate 1,321.50 checkpoint rounds to −0.02%. Both can be arithmetically consistent because they use different reference values. Neither calculation verifies the inputs or proves a market cause.
The official unit is not a farmgate price
CBOT Rulebook Chapter 11 specifies a 5,000-bushel soybean contract and a quarter-cent-per-bushel minimum fluctuation, equivalent to $12.50 per contract. The retained 1,321.25-cent display is $13.2125 per bushel by conversion, not $1,321.25 per bushel. The rulebook does not identify the expiry behind ZS=F or authenticate the old quote. The old range-position calculation is no longer promoted as an independently verified session statistic.
Archive clarification — 17 October 2026: The missing delivery month and quote-timezone limitations are now visible in the headline/summary and body. Repetitive driver checklists and an unsupported impression of a fully identified session range were removed while preserving the raw observations. The original URL, publication and modification date fields, image assignment and byline are unchanged. This is a correction of the historical report, not a new market update.
