[User Discussion] - continuous contracts on Bitmex

Hi. Expiration date for futures contracts was today for alts in Bitmex, and now I can see only one day in the new charts.

I'm trying to use the "continuous Contract" feature but it doesn't seem to work for me.
Is there any special way to make this work on Bitmex?

Thanks a lot

The proper solution to this is to use the non-expiring symbols like:
XBTUSD-BMEX.

Yes, XBTUSD-BMEX works fine for me, but I was talking about the alts. Let's take for example ADA:

The symbol ADAM18-BMEX has accurate price, volume works fine, but it only has two days of history (actual contract).

The symbol .ADAXBT-BMEX has longer history, but the price is not accurate and the volume doesn't work

The symbol ADAXBT-BMEX does not exist and it gives an error

So... what symbol am I supposed to use?
