Hi,

sc.SymbolData->LastTradingDateForFutures seems to always be zero (0.0f).

Is there somewhere else I can find this Date in ACSIL? (I want to display a message when a contract is near it's last trade date.)

I tested in version 1585 with various futures contracts (ESU17  NQU17  RTYU17  NYU17  LEQ17  GFQ17  HEQ17  LSU17  GCQ17  SIU17  CLU17  NGQ17  HGU17  HOU17  RBQ17  PAU17  PLV17  DYU17  ZCU17  ZSX17  ZLZ17  ZWU17)

Thanks

Hi,

Okay I just found the Sierra "Rollover Method Tester" in "Check Rollover Dates" in "Global Symbol Settings" and I now realise that this is probably much more complex than I first envisioned.

I know that the Interactive Brokers UI has a column with "Days To Last Trading Day". I'll make it a habit to check this once a week. That's the easiest solution.

In most cases sc.SymbolData->LastTradingDateForFutures will be 0, but we will make sure it is set in the next release.
