dear sir,
I would like to subscribe ESignal data for Hang Seng futures, is it possible to create a continuous contract thru Quote Manager?

dear TJ,
thank you for your reply, I used IB in the past, I can make it. but it seems the same way is not workable with eSignal. anyway, will go thru your messages and try again.

eSignal provides ready-made continuous future. Every time there is a rollover (which you do more in HSI more than in es), it is a real hassle because you have to reload all the data again.

Using the Custom Futures feature in MC is the prefered method.
