sdruley -Interested User- Posts: 2 Joined: Mar 13, 2012	Posted: Mar 13, 2012 08:04 AM Msg. 1 of 4 I am currently using a beta versioin of xlQ that previously was workig well until the instrument changed from ES 03-12 to ES 06-12 (Emini S&P500). During the first quarter contract I was able to secure good data from IQFeed. The xlQ equivalent symbology for this futures is '@ESh12. When making the conversion to second quarter is there another symbol, other than '@ESh12, that I need to use so that the incoming data is second quarter vintage instead of first quarter?

To view the June 2012 contract you will need to change the symbol to either @ESM12 for the individual contract or @ES# for the Continuous contract which will roll automatically from front month to front month. If you have any other problems or questions please let us know. Thanks. Curtis Thompson support@iqfeed.net support@dtniq.com Trading Markets Customer Service 1-800-397-7000 x3614

Do you mean i can enter @ES# and I will not have to worry about changing the symbol again? My application is only for the current day and not historical. This would be nice. Steve

If you have any other problems or questions please let us know. Thanks. Curtis Thompson support@iqfeed.net support@dtniq.com Trading Markets Customer Service 1-800-397-7000 x3614
