TS Custom Futures

Postby Kitty13 » 27 May 2018

I am trying to replay using a TS custom futures contract, @ES=101xn. The data that plots in MultiCharts is not like what appears in TS; there are gaps all over in the MultiCharts chart.

I found one other post regarding TS custom futures symbols, and that poor user seemed to be still lost at the end. I have contacted MultiCharts several times about gaps and various inconsistencies between MultiCharts charts and TS charts. I usually get a series of "canned" solutions that I have tried to apply numerous times without any resulting success.

Perhaps I need to add @es=101xn (?). I could not find any way to add this symbol and the user in the previous post also got lost somewhere at this stage. Wondering if anybody would please help. Thank you!

If you want to show your future contracts in continuous format,

DO NOT USE the TS's continuous contract.

Create individual original contracts in QuoteManager.
Then let MultiCharts build the continuous contract for you.

Thank you, TJ! I didn't know MultiCharts even had the ability, let alone know how to do it. I'll try to look it up.
