Hi. I made a backtest of a futures strategy and then I exported it. Then I uploaded to a program that outputs lots of useful stats. But I found that in the data, every contract traded throughout the years has the same month code as the actual active one. e.g:Every trade done in the last 10 years was made with the ESU19 contract. 1) Is there a way to export the data, and that the contracts correspond with their actual dates, based on volume rollovers? 2)If not, is there a way to edit the data, and change one by one the data to the real contract used? |

1. Refer to this section here about this: Auto Trade System Back Testing: Back Testing and Continuous Futures Contract Charts 2. If you are exporting data from the Trade Activity Log, that is in a text format and you can certainly edit it. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
