Historical Roll Out CL for 2023

[snoussi]

Good morning,
I would like to do back testing but in market replay via Playback for the year 2023, and to do this correctly I need the appropriate instrument for each month, for example CL 02/2023, CL 03/2023 ect, but I can't download this because I can't find them, can you help me?

Hello snoussi,

Thank you for reaching out.

For your reference you can actually manually type your instrument in the selection field.


However, please note that you can only download 90 days of Market Replay data from the current date.

If you want to download historical data longer than 90 days, you will need to be connected to an active data provider or broker, and also use the "Historical" playback instead.

For more information on loading historical data, please visit the following links:

Thanks for your reply !

I can't find the choice of instrument in the list, can you show me a screen, because it is impossible to select the old instruments

Hello snoussi,

Thank you for reaching out.

You can pick CL from the default instrument list as shown here:



Or you can highlight the "Select" field, delete it and manually type your contract symbol.



One you Enter your text, the contract should populate. Now you just need to pick a date when it was active within the last 90 days. For example, the CL JAN24 contract was active during December 2023.



Please let us know if we may be of further assistance.
