The 6B is the British Pound futures contract, traded on the CME with a £62,500 notional. It’s a popular FX futures contract for traders who want clean exposure to GBP/USD without the spread games of retail FX brokers. The 6B is especially active around Bank of England meetings and UK CPI / wage data.
