Hi,

(not sure if this forum is the right place for this issue; please feel free to move this post if appropriate)

Does IQFeed provide historical data (daily and intraday) for continous contracts on futures (and options?) ?

Sample:
Is there some "special" symbol for the ES to retrieve a complete series of daily data for the last 2 years including automatic rollovers?
If so: On what condition will the contracts be rolled ? A fixed date ? Volume based ? Else ?

Regards

Not at this time. Continuous contracts are partially implemented on the feed, but haven't been released while we test the rollover process. Our symbology will be @ES#(emini), C# (corn), etc. when released.

Thanks for letting me know.

Would be great if you could throw out some information on the rollover process (time/volume based ...) when this feature will be released.
