Trading Symbol clarification

COPPER21OCTFUT
COPPEROCT21DEC21FUT
COPPEROCT21NOV21FUT

I see 3 different trading symbols for commodity instrument with same expiry dates. I don't understand last 2 trading symbols.
What is it for?
Which 1 of them should I use for placing orders?

    You need to place order on this monthly FUT contract.
    COPPEROCT21DEC21FUT
    COPPEROCT21NOV21FUT
    These two are spread contracts i.e spread over two months 21OCT21NOV, you can ignore these. We will remove such spread contracts from the instrument file.

    @rakeshr thanks. If possible can you remove other contracts with names in numbers. I don't know how to filter them from showing on the GUI.
