I have "automatically rollover futures symbol" and "continuous contract volume based rollover back adjusted" both selected will SC automatically roll the contract and tell me to redownload the data or will i have to do it manually?

If I have to do it manually and I am off a day or 2 will it improperly do the calculations since the rules state to use the active contract? "Make certain the Symbol is set to the current futures contract month assuming that you want the latest contract month at the end of the chart."

Sierra Chart will perform the rollover automatically as long as the Chartbook is reopened on the day of rollover. Or you select Chart >> Reload and Recalculate.

If you do the rollover manually and at the wrong day, the calculations could be off.
