Two things about this. In order for order fills to match, you cannot use one of the Back Adjusted options: Continuous Futures Contract Charts: Continuous Futures Contract Rollover Options And set this to Yes in Chart Settings: Chart Settings: Load Order Fills for Multiple Futures Contracts (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading menu) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Got it, thanks! So, how do I choose my rollover? What should I have choose from that menu? -date rule? -volume based? or I can select "volume based, back adjusted and ignore the messed orders? |

All I need is the chart to be correct, I can hide the old orders from old dates

Yes, that is correct. It shows you the actual prices of the contracts. There is a difference in price between the old contract and the new one, which is why you have the gap.
