Editing Futures Rollovers not saving

[zharrison]

I have tried to modify the rollover dates for several futures. I have removed a few contracts as the volume is lower. For example on /ZL I have removed 8-21 and 9-21 so it rolls directly from july to dec. I save my workspace after I do this. When I close ninja and reload it the next day these edits are not saved. What am I missing?

Thanks
Zach

Hello zharrison,


The ZL 12-21 doesn't rollover in NinjaTrader until 08/20/2021 If you want to rollover before that and continue to merge past contracts, you will need to adjust the rollover date:

• Control Center > Tools > Instruments
• Locate and select 'ZL' > Edit
• Scroll down and select 'Edit rollovers'
• Select the '12-21' contract from the 'configured' list
• Edit the 'rollover date' to any date prior to today > OK > OK > Close
• Right-click on your chart and select 'reload all historical data'

If you do not want your charts to merge back past contracts, you can change your merge policy to 'Do Not Merge' under Control Center > Tools > Options > Market Data > Global Merge Policy.

Below I have provided a link to the Understanding Merge Policies section of the help guide.
