Title says it all. I have tried setting the continuous futures contract options to every option available. & yet, if I had not seen it with my own eyes, I would - according to these charts - be unaware of that -40 marker. Is there a way to set up the charts so that I can see that low?? (without opening that individual fut. contract).
If there isn't, might you consider setting up a continuous contract setting which allows people to see futures contracts rollover happen at contract expiration??? (in addition to date rollover and volume rollover).

Thank you for your time and consideration. Pce

Looking for this? See attached...

Go to Global Settings Symbols find the CL contract symbol that you want to change. In the window scroll down to Rollover Method and change it to 0 Days before... That will use the last price the contract actually traded at.

Here is the link as well to Continuous Futures Contracts

BTW there are some pros and cons to be aware of doing this. Your futures contracts won't rollover eg. in your quoteboard until the last day which will be well past the last trading date, the price will be accurate to the last tick but the volumes will look off in say a year long chart.
