Description

For newly added eSignal futures contracts, the default contract expiry date automatically entered in the symbol mapping page is incorrect. This is despite the fact that QM has the correct contract expiry for the same instrument.
I'm using IB as my broker.

Steps to reproduce this issue

Add "GC Q1" in QM.
- Instrument > Add Symbol > From Data Source > eSignal > Future
- Lookup "GC Q1" > select "GC Q1" > Add
View "QC Q1" in QM
- Double click GC Q1
- Notice expiry date of 7/27/2011
Open new chart and select "GC Q1"
View symbol mapping in SA
- SA > Settings: Interactive Brokers > Symbol Mapping
