A quick explanation is that back adjusting means that prior contract months in a Continuous Futures Contract chart are adjusted by the rollover gap which occurs from one contract month to the next. For example, if there is a price difference of -6.5 when rolling over from December to March ES futures, then the December futures prices are decreased by 6.5 in the chart. Here's an example of this: ESH14 [CB] 30 min #1: Performing continuous futures contract back adjustment calculations. | 2013-12-30 12:05:05
