The limitation is that you cannot use the Continuous Futures Contract feature on a chart that uses data from a remote instance of Sierra Chart.

We will look this over and see if there is an easy solution. But there are many considerations to properly implement this. It is not so simple.

Actually, there is a very simple answer to this.

Just do what we said previously. Go to your Interactive Brokers instance of Sierra Chart and open a new chart through File >> Find Symbol and do not use the data from a remote instance. You can then set the Continuous Futures Contract feature on that chart.
