How to Built Continuos Contracts

[iwannatoscript 10]

Hi Folks,

 

i am using zen fire and interactivebroker, and i see that i could build a continuos contract to have a big database of data to test strategy.

I have never done this before, is there a code or something that to it automatically in multicharts or ninjatrader?

see my response to your other post....

everyone has a different method of building continuous contracts

(I dont know about ninja, or MC in terms of building contracts in the systems as I import my own data separately - off which it cost me a lot of time and money to get it to the manner I like - so no you can not have it as it would not necessarily suit you, its data that costs money and vendors don't want people just buying it and passing it on.)

Ok i answer to you on the other post.

The zen fire allows up to 30days historical data for now. The Ninja 7.0 will fix that however, there is no date when the 7.0 release.
