Hi,

I need to know how to put the ZB ZN together as one line chart. I have tried but I get a line chart under the original chart. I want to see just the ZN ZB as one line chart. Can you please help.

Thank you

We need to understand precisely the calculation that you want to do.

Do you want to calculate the difference between ZB and ZN futures contracts?

Hi,

Yes the difference between the ZB and ZN.

Also a butterfly spread with thirty year, ten year, and five year. Called a Butterfly spread I believe. All futures contracts.

I am using CQG data feed.

Thank you

With CQG you can use the CQG exchange traded spreads. Refer to:
CQG Trading Platform Service: CQG Exchange Traded Strategies/Spreads Symbol Format

You can also use the Difference (Single Line) study:
Difference (Bar or Single Line)

There is also the Butterfly study:
Spread - Butterfly

You can set either study to display as the main price graph:
Chart Studies: Settings and Inputs Tab >> Display As Main Price Graph

Hi,

It would be very helpful if there were support for the native, exchange-traded butterflies, with real (and full) market depth. On this note, full market depth for MBO customers on calendar spreads would be much appreciated, as well.
