Ok, looking at the HG charts. My daily shows HGU3 with a yellow box that says "click" to perform rollover. The other intraday charts (2, 5, 15, & 60) all show HGZ3 - I have 5 charts on the screen. When I click the yellow box and tell it to roll the daily to the Z contract, it does. Then I load the ES contracts to look at them and then go back to the HG contract the daily Z has reverted back to the U contract. I even tried saving it in between changing to another chart and it still reverts to U. The other symbols all do the same thing, by the way. I don't know what criteria you use for rolling but even though there is still some volume left in these contracts that expire today most of the volume has rolled forward. My other platforms all show that the Sept contract is not the active contract any longer. So if I'm not going to trade a contract that expires in days why am I forced to look at that contract without having to change it each time I leave that symbol, go to another symbol and then come back to the first symbol that I already changed? That doesn't make sense to me.
