Hi, I underatand its not possible to show continuous futures chart symbols using Add Additional Symbol study which is a shame.

However, is it possible to create a custom symbol, which is derived from continuous futures data, as a way of getting around this problem?

This is for the user to determine. We do not know how they would do this.

Support, to create a custome symbol would I pull up a continuous daily chart with the historical data I am interested in, then export this as a data file, then re-import as a new symbol? Or is there more effieinct way to do this? I assume this file would need to be updated manually or is there a way to do this automatically? Your help's appreciated. Thanks
