I haven’t really seen too many lines with a lot of time at the end of the month. Is this standard for the way the lines are built and the carryover?

Any suggestions?
If I were you, I’d bid composite and request as many days off in a row as possible beginning no earlier than 21 days after the bids close. Other than that, you’re stuck just trying to trip trade for days off towards the end of the month.
