We have thought about this and it does not come across logical to us and we can see no reason for it. If there is a futures market which has quarterly contracts and then another one with monthly contracts, you can certainly compute the spread between these.

In the case of a Continuous Futures Contract chart, at each bar in the chart, the particular contract month which is the most active month, is what is included. Unless we do not understand your objective.

In Global Settings >> Symbol Settings >> Rollover >> Continuous Contract, you can set the months used for the Continuous Futures Contract independently from the the standard contract months for that particular futures market.
