If it is automatically updating to the next contract, then that is because the setting for Chart >> Chart Settings >> Automatically Rollover Futures Symbol is enabled for the chart. Disable this option to not have it automatically rollover, but just notify you that it is time to change. Refer to the documentation at the following link: Chart Settings: Automatically Rollover Futures Symbol (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu) The exact choice of when to switch is personal, but there are two different approaches. The first is by date, where the rollover occurs according to a set schedule as established by the exchange. This is set in the Symbol Settings for the symbol and you can adjust the specific date by using the setting for Global Settings >> General Settings >> General 4 >> Additional Days to Add to Rollover Date for Automatic Chart and Quote Board Rollovers. Refer to the documentation at the following link: General Settings Window: Additional Days to Add to Rollover Date for Chart and Quote Board Rollovers (Global Settings >> General Settings >> Charts >> Charts) The other option is Volume Based Rollover, where when the next contract has a higher daily volume than the current contract, then it rolls over. You can set the use of Volume-Based Rollover using the setting for Detect Rollover of Current Futures Contracts Symbols Based on Real-Time Volume. Refer to the documentation at the following link: General Settings Window: Detect Rollover Of Current Futures Contracts Symbols Based On Real Time Volume (Global Settings >> General Settings >> Charts >> Symbol) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-12-10 15:39:55
