Hi Sierra, My developer is currently building me a complete Astro toolkit for Sierra chart. For optimal use of this new tool, I would need to be able to make continuation charts of a single futures Month with the years joined when volume favors the newer one. So for example, Gann used to trade May Soybeans. So May Soybeans 1954 would be joined to May Soybeans 1955 to May Soybeans 1956. So the month is kept consistent and the year would change. Having more than a year of data will be required to make optimal use of my new toolkit and to get the best results, I would need to keep the contract month consistent. Many Gann traders lament how all trading software (except Market Analyst) just uses the front month so I would be very appreciative if Sierra leads the way. https://books.google.com.au/books?id=IvcrTQJHke0C&pg=PP73&lpg=PP73&dq=gann+continuation+charts&source=bl&ots=cjgZo1Lu2b&sig=u7wEVjXQy28q8xzchO1RxBCbKSE&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi6q6q2iJHXAhVIu7wKHd1gAVEQ6AEILDAB#v=onepage&q=gann%20continuation%20charts&f=false |

thank you. since not all users may be familiar with the term "gann continuation", if you can add this to the chart settings menu, you may consider calling it "Same Month Continuation Contract" and then in the documentation just explain that a single month is rolled over year to year. many thanks.

Hi Sierra, Can you please fix the implementation of this? It is crucial for astrological analysis. Please see attached in wheat. The May Wheat 2016 expired in mid-April 2016. The day after this 2016 contract expires, i.e. still in May 2016, the 2017 contract data is supposed to be show. I appreciate that the volume will be thin for the 2017 contract in May 2016 this is what is required for Astrological Analysis. With the current implementation, there is a year of missing data - making Gann analysis impossible. Please see the date markers I have put on the chart. http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1518778175109.png With thanks, Michel Date Time Of Last Edit: 2018-02-16 10:58:55
