Markets closed but prices change

[elisabeth]

Hello,

I have a general question on markets and data:

Why do I get price changes on futures on eg. NQ when this market is actually closed. The same with Eurex. NQ at CET 10 AM gives me price changes. My data provider is continuum. Is there a way I can avoid showing these hours on the chart?

Many thanks,
Elisabeth

Hello Elisabeth,

Please note that the market is not closed - it still trades overnight.

The session template determines during what hours the chart will receive data. You select the session template in the Data Series menu of the chart. Please select the 'CME US Index Futures RTH' session template to load data between 9:30 AM - 4:15 PM EDT.

If set to <Use instrument settings>, it will use the session template that is configured for the instrument in the Instrument Manager. Please go to Control Center-->Tools-->Instrument Manager, highlight the instrument in question and click Edit. You will now see what session template the instrument by default uses.

You can view the times of each session template in the Session Manager (Control Center-->Tools). It will allow you to create new ones as well. More information regarding the Session Manager can be found at the link below.
