I am looking at moving from NT 6.5 to NT 7.0.1000.2. I have a large DB that was automatically imported into NT 7. That looks good. In NT 6.5 I manually created a continous contract, e.g. ES_C that I merged the prior data into by hand. That came across fine. When I look at the current ES 03-11 contract and go back a year or so, I notice there is a gap at the RTH close on rollover day - i.e. it is not adjusted, despite having "MergeBackAdjusted" set as a policy. I already have years of minute historical data that is clearly being accessed. What do I have to do to have it merge correctly?
What I want:
1. Each contract's original data to exist untouched so I can just examine the real data if need be.
2. To be able to choose whether to chart adjusted data or actual data for a given contract (current or historical) depending on the context.
I simply cannot understand either from the documentation or the threads here what process I need to follow to do this. This was tedious, but possible in NT 6.5 by manual merging into a contract. What do I have to do in NT 7? I do not see a manual merge by date range window anywhere, and I cannot "reload" data because I have real-time tick data saved.
This feature looks great, but I am really confused.
Thanks
