This member is the original thread starter. YM daily chart discrepances?. Please, help

I believe that in my daily YM continuous contract chart (IQFeed + Sierracharts) there is a gap of 100 points approx. to the downside from 9/12 (September contract rollover day) back guards (note the 7/17 high and 8/16 low). I have attached the image so you can see by yourself what I am trying to explain. I have talked to IQFeed support and they say that their data are correct. Anyway, I would appreciate if you could post the same Tradestation chart (or other datafeed) to check if mine is correct.
Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards.

IQ doesn't "blend" the data like Tradestation does for contract rollovers on continuous symbols. I used to grapple with the same issues when I was using dtn.

Hello TinGull. Do you mean that they apply an adjustment to the september contract data in order to avoid the gap I mentioned?. If so, do you know what do they do?.

Thank you very much in advance.
Kind regards

They do apply some sort of adjustment (they being TradeStation) to the end of the June/beginning of Sept contracts in order to mesh the 2 together. As for how they do it....I've got no idea. DTN couldn't figure it out either.
