Can you please validate how I have setup session times for QM futures contract?

I turned off "Use Evening Session" and specified start time at 16:45:00 and end time at 16:00:00. I'm located in CST, same as CME. I have load weekend data checked. This should cover both weekday and Sunday sessions.

Is this correct or it is safer to include your default 00:00:00 - 23:59:59 settings?

Also, I don't have "New Bar at session start" checked, since I prefer my contracts to continue.

The way you have set this sounds fine. To be on the safe side set the End Time to 16:44:59.
