different contracts mixed in one chart

Please look at the screenshots attached. "Reload all historical Data" doesn't help. It is the same, wether Rithmic or CQG. And it is not only with one instrument as you can see.

Hello Bummm,

Please note that the NG 06-13 expiry is setup for 4/26/2013. This means that if you create a NG 06-13 chart before this date, it will load all historical data from the 05-13 expiry and combines it with real-time data from the 06-13 expiry.

This can cause a large bar, because historical data from the 05-13 expiry and real-time data from the 06-13 expiry are combined. There is a price difference between the 05-13 and 06-13 expiry.


You can change the rollover date for the 06-13 expiry to today.

Please go to Control Center-->Tools-->Instrument Manager, highlight the NG and click Edit.

To change the rollover date, please click the Misc-tab and select the 'Contract months' row at the bottom. Click the '...' button that appears. Select the 06-13 expiry and change the rollover date on the right side.

Once you made changes to the NG instrument, please remove and re-add the CL 06-13 to your instrument list. Highlight the NG 06-13 in your instrument list and click the arrow pointing to the right. Highlight the NG in the 'Available master instruments' section, set Expiry to 06-13 and click the arrow pointing to the left.

Reload historical data in the NG 06-13 chart or create a new one.
