Post From: Discrepancy in Futures Symbol for CL

This is just a nomenclature difference. Sierra Chart matches to the Contract Month that is stated by the CME. Rithmic is using some other mechanism, but the symbols are referencing the same data.

To give you a better idea of what Sierra Chart is referencing, look at the CME calendar for CL here: https://www.cmegroup.com/trading/energy/crude-oil/light-sweet-crude_product_calendar_futures.html

You will see that the CME references the January 2019 Contract Month as CLF19, the same as Sierra Chart.
