SC:

1. If I want to watch the Numbers Bars Calculated Values study do I need version 3 or version 5 of Sierra?

2. I had my LEM7 - the June live cattle chart set to auto rollover based on volume and it did not auto rollover? I my charts set using -- chart > chart settings > and then I checked the automatically rollover futures symbol....then on the advanced setting page, I have the Continuous Futures Contract - Volume Based Rollover selected. How come the software didn't do the auto roll to LEQ7? I am using a rithmic feed into Sierra. The CME site shows that LEQ7 clearly has the most volume. Here is the link to the CME info. http://www.cmegroup.com/trading/agricultural/livestock/live-cattle.html

1. Service Package 5 is required.

2. It does not work this way. The documentation does explain this. There would never be an automatic rollover based on volume when Sierra Chart is running. That would be dangerous.



In the latest Sierra Chart version, you need to enable this option:
General Settings Window: Detect Rollover Of Current Futures Contracts Symbols Based On Real Time Volume (Global Settings >> General Settings >> Charts >> Symbol)

The description for it has not yet been written but will prompt you when a rollover is needed.
