Others have mostly laid it out pretty well. Another advantage is you get paid 60-80% advance at the time of delivery. Rest gets paid out when futures are set. But like agdeal mentioned, rolly into carry turns into uphill business pretty quick. As one contract goes off the board the next one usually drifts lower and you're futures price is about the same as you had but you had to eat the spread(carry) in the futures. Also spread between Z and H can get pretty wide. .15+ probably. As far as getting a few extra cents it just depends on the buyer. Sometimes you can get up to a dime better with a large volume but most of the time 2 or 3 cents.
