roll over dates for continuous FT charts

[markobrien]

I have been trying to work out what the actual default dates are for various contracts on FT continuous charts.
I have read enough of the help guide to work out how to customise the charts but I can't reverse engineer the default continuous charts.
Does anyone have an idea of the actual dates for contract roll over on Continuous charts or how to figure out what the defaults on various contracts are?
The contracts I am looking at are:
XRB RBOB Gasoline
NG Natty Gas
CL Crude Oil
HO Heating Oil
ES S&P Mini
AB Russell 2k Mini
NQ Nasdaq 100 Mini
HG Copper
PL Platinum
PA Palladium
ZT 2yr T-Notes
ZF 5yr T-Notes
ZN 10yr T-Notes
ZB 30 yr T-Notes
ZG Gold
ZI Silver
YM DJI Mini
ZS Soybeans
ZL " " " Oil
ZM " " " Meal
ZC Corn
ZO Oats
ZW Wheat
AP SPI 200

Are you referring to the #F continuous contracts? If that is the case then you can find an explanation of eSignal's methodology in this article in the eSignal KnowledgeBase. The article also explains how to perform a lookup of the rollover method for a specific contract.
Note that in eSignal you can also configure your own continuous contracts based on rules of your choice.
For all the details and the instructions on how to create the user configured contracts see this article in the eSignal KnowledgeBase
Hope this helps
