Hi there,

I currently have continuous volume based average futures rolling on my charts. Can you help me understand how this works as my GC charts were still on GCV when the volume adjusted to GCZ?

Thanks for the help.

If you have the following option set to "Yes", then when the volume is greater in the next contract, you will get a notification to rollover:
General Settings Window: Detect Rollover Of Current Futures Contracts Symbols Based On Real Time Volume (Global Settings >> General Settings >> Charts >> Symbol)

Otherwise, when the actual date is arriving for the end of trading for a contract, you will be told to rollover.

The choice of Continuous Futures Contract option determines where the rollover then occurs, which mostly affects older contracts. Refer to the following:
