Hi, I am running Sierra version 2425 with the ESU22 futures contract. In the past when I would disconnect from the data feed and reconnect to the data feed I would typically get a yellow message box reminder on all of my charts that it was contract rollover time. I noticed this does not seem to be appearing on my charts now. In the past I was using the transact data feed but now I am using Teton. Is there a way I can get this reminder on the charts? Thanks |

You will get a reminder when the time comes for the rollover. The ES rollover is set to occur on the 15th of this month (Thursday of this week). Therefore you will get a reminder on that day. If you want to adjust the day, you can do so using the following setting: General Settings Window: Additional Days to Add to Rollover Date for Chart and Quote Board Rollovers (Global Settings >> General Settings >> Charts >> Charts) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Hi John. thanks for getting back to me on this. I looked at the link you sent to adjust the day. In the documentation it says that "This option sets the number of days after the date-based rollover date for the symbol, for the symbol to be considered expired or needs to be rolled over. For example, if this is set to 3 and the date-based automatic rollover for a symbol is March 31, then the symbol will not rollover until April 3." This sounds like it will push the rollover further out after the expiration. I am looking for a message that would tell me in advance to rollover prior to the expiration. I would typically get the yellow message reminder about one week in advance. Let me know if I am interpreting this incorrectly. I would usually start to see the yellow message box with the rollover reminder starting on September 8 for a September 15 rollover and it would appear every time I would reconnect to the data feed. Thanks |
