Hi,

Can you tell me when your @EU#C automatically rolls to September as the front month? What are your rules for the roll (volume based, time based etc)?

Could you tell me how I could achieve this manually? Ie a @EU#C with September as the front month?

I currently use your feed with multicharts.

Kind regards,

Will

the @EU#C will roll at end of session today and will display the next contract at start of new session.
it is set by time to roll 2 trading days prior to experation.

We do have the rules for the contracts on our web site www.iqfeed.net under the symbol guide

Loren,
I understand that the EU rolls over 3 days prior to contract month expiration. I went to the symbol part of the website, but have not found where this information is.
I trade future currencies, energies, grains, indices, metals, interest instruments etc. Is there a pdf file that contains DTN IQ's procedure for contract roll overs? Thanks.

sorry meant to type 2 days

Roll rules can be diffrent for each commodity, so we list them by commodity root.

On the IQFeed.net Symbol Guide page (http://www.iqfeed.net/symbolguide/index.cfm?symbolguide=guide&displayaction=support§ion=guide&web=iqfeed) there is a box listing Future exchanges, click on an exchange link and the commodity roots for that exchange will be listed with roll rules for each.
