    FESX: %ET 1!-DT
    FDAX: %AX 1!-DT

    Dis donc ! Tu trades le CAC alors ? Mais c'est FOR-MI-DA-BLE ! CAC 40: %FCE 1!-EEI

    FTSE: %Z 1!-EEI

    FGBL: %GB 1!-DT

      Thank You There is no % before symbol

      e.g. for DAX it is : AX 1!-DT

      Do you or can someone tell me if I download tick data using continuous symbol, would it be the same data if I downloaded using non continous symbol ?

      What I mean is would the tick data of AX 1!-DT be same as AX M1-DT ?

      Thank You.

        FWIW the article and syntax examples Raphaele mentioned apply to version 11.
        If you are using a prior version then you may want to read this article in the eSignal KnowledgeBase on how to create user configured continuous contracts
        To answer your question the current data for AX 1!-DT is the same as that of AX M1-DT

          Can you tell me what roll over date is used in continuous contract of following 4 symbols ? I understand it can be configuered by the user but I want to know what eSignal is using.

          (1) DAX
          (2) FTSE
          (3) CAC
          (4) BUND

          Thanks again Alexis.

            You are welcome
            With regards to your question just open the Continuous Contracts Settings tool, select the contract from the drop down list and look at the name of the Roll template which will pretty much describe the roll pattern [eg ESIGNAL2BusPrior3rdWed which means 2 business days prior to the third Wednesday of the expiration month]
