is there any way I can view the DAX e MINI in a continuous form? Meaning not to switch to the upcoming March contract.

We do not know what you mean by this, but we do not see it as relevant anyway.

He wants a continuous contract symbol. Note, this need not be a symbol from your datafeed but could be handled internally within the charting application. Several other charting apps handle it this way.

This is quite convenient, especially if one is involved in many markets.

OK then, just so I am clear here is an example:

Th IB symbol GBM-201612-DTB has a rollover setting of 2 business days before the 10th of the rollover month. That would make it the 8th of DEC 2016.

The advanced settings in my chart has it set to date rule rollover, back adjusted.

This should have rolled over automatically on the 8th?
