    Is there a way to pull up data from previous contract periods?

    For example, this morning I wanted to look at the data from March 4th 2019. I attempted to open a new chart for the contract period ending 3-20-19, but no data appeared on the chart. Thank you. (I trade the ES)

    Hello,

    The 03-20 index contracts expired Friday morning.

    Please follow these steps to roll over the expiration date of a Futures contract:
    • Navigate to the Control Center > Tools > Database window.
    • Left-click the ‘Rollover’ button that appears just below the table under the ‘Rollover futures instruments’ section.
    • Close this window when this process completes.

    You can learn more about the different ways to rollover by visiting the link below:

      Hello Ryan. I am not sure you understood my question, or perhaps you did and I don't understand your response. I was asking if I was able to view data from earlier contracts periods. For example, am I able to pull up the chart data for June 25th 2019? I have already rolled over to the 6-20 contract period if that's what you were giving me instructions for. But I did that using the "Instrument manager". I did not see a "database window" under tools.

        Hello,

        The default merge policy will merge past contracts automatically, so loading the front month will automatically load data from previous contracts according to the roll dates in the platform. Below is a link to further information on merge policies:



        To increase the amount of days you are viewing on the chart, increase the days to load option in the data series menu, or select a custom date range to view.

        Please let us know if you have any further questions.
