Is there any way to create a 'Master Symbol' for tracking PNL and Stats for futures contracts regardless of exp month, a symbol change or even different accounts so it all rolls up into NQ, ES, CL etc? If not, could you all add a field under Symbol Settings -> F.US.CLE?## -> (New Field) Master Symbol -> NQ,ES,CL etc, so all contracts associated are 'rolled up' into a consolidated list? Then in Trade Activity Log a new tab [Master Trade Activity] to view the consolidated contracts. Example YTD just for Crude I already have the following (below). Partly due to multiple brokers/symbols, AMP switch from TT to CQG (symbol change), and probably when your CME Direct Routing goes live yet another symbol change. Even absent all that, I can't see a way to report PNL/Stats for weekly/monthly/yearly, top level contracts like CL or ES. CL-202101-NYMEX CL-202102-NYMEX CL-202103-NYMEX CL-202104-NYMEX CL-202105-NYMEX F.US.CLEF21 F.US.CLEG21 F.US.CLEH21 F.US.CLEJ21 CLF21_FUT_NYMEX CLG21_FUT_NYMEX CLH21_FUT_NYMEX Being able to track all these into a consolidated 'Crude Oil' master symbol would be awesome Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-03-28 16:11:24

Why did you all set this to user discussion? I searched through the online manuals and forums and didn't find anything. If it can be done a link would be great, if not I try to offer a suggestion that may work. I can't be the only one that wants a consolidated report of trading activity at the 'top level' of futures contracts... NOTE: I can see the sheer volume of support requests are really high, CME Direct Routing (massive development effort) and therefore spend even more time than normal searching through forums/manuals working through something before burdening you all.
