Wrong futures expiration date

Postby jrakovsk » 02 Jan 2019

Hi
I have stored historical quotes for expired NQ contact from IB in the Quote Manager database. I used them until recently. Now I cannot load the data for contract from 2014 anymore . The expiration date in the NQ symbols has changed from 2014 to 2024 and the contracts are marked as "Not expired". See the snip attached.

Does anybody know why / how it could happen ?
Is it possible to edit the expiration date and correct the symbols manually?

The is not possible to edit the expiration date field in the quote manager / edit symbol.

thx, Juraj

Hello Juraj,

You need to change the symbol name to NQU2014.
