Post From: CUSTOM SYMBOL trying to get continuous contracts checkmark continuos no go using 1,338 min

HI,

I was trying to get a custom symbol to update on a continuous contract basis so i could
look back at say crude oil x unleaded for the past few years.

i tried check marking the continuous contract and using 1,338 minutes to get close to a full day bar

can i do this with a custom symbol?

if not how would i do it with the difference function but I am hoping to be able to do it with a continuous contract.
thank you in advance


one other question. if i have a custom symbol and it is a bar chart or a line chart how would i get that chart to use a range chart
i have multipliers and the symbols are notional (dollar normalized) so i would be looking for like my range setting to be
50 or 100 or 25 in number.

I tried this and the problem I think is because the system is trying to match both markets with this range.
Is there a way for me to take the '"RAW OUTPUT" of the custom symbol say oil vs unleaded and apply just the output numbers
to to manipulate them into a range chart? thank you
