COT Report - missing Report and Field in Strategy Builder

[FutureTrade]

Dear Support

Question - where did the following hide in the COT Indicator if I use the Strategy Builder:

Report: Disaggregated futures
Field: Produce/merchant/processor/user net

I can build on a chart a SMA or other Indicator with the above searched Report and Field - see attached pdf. But if I build the same with the Strategy Builder, I have no access to the Report: "Disaggregated futures" and Field: "Produce/merchant/processor/user net" - see also the attached pdf.

In the Strategy Builder I have access to Cot1 to Cot5 as pre-defined, but I can not see the Report and Field.


I try to build an Indicator with following formula:

(COTmin - COTactual) / (COTmax - COTmin) = Absolut Value


COTmin = lowest reading of the last 3 years "Produce/merchant/processor/user net"
COTactual = current weeks reading "Produce/merchant/processor/user net"
COTmax = highest reading of the last 3 years "Produce/merchant/processor/user net"

In the chart I can make all with following Indicators:
MIN
SMA
MAX

But in the Strategy Builder, no access to the Report: "Disaggregated futures" and Field: "Produce/merchant/processor/user net"

If you have an idea, how I can solve it would be very appreciated.

Markus

Hello FutureTrade,

Thanks for your post.

COT uses a TypeConverter in its code which complicates how properties can be accessed in the Strategy Builder. This is a current limitation with the platform that we are tracking impact on in the enhancement request ticket SFT-5098. I have tracked your impact here.

Please note that we cannot offer an ETA or promise of fulfillment with enhancement/feature requests.

When Feature/Enhancements/Changes are made to the platform, they noted in the Release Notes page of the Help Guide. The number will be different from the SFT ID, but can be referenced in the description of the change.

Please let us know if you haver any additional questions.
