For some reason +BO#C is missing data for the end of last week. Both weekly and daily bars are affected; the last bars are for 5/23/2012 and a new bar was received today for 5/29/2012. We're not seeing this with any other commodities; just soybean oil back adjusted continuous.

Hello,

Thank you for letting us know. I have reported this for correction and will be back when we know more. For extra information, I do show the daily data there for BO#C and @BO#C.

Hello,

+BO#C is a back-adjusted continuous contract for a combination of pit and Globex soybean oil quotes.

@BO# is the normal continuous contract for Globex soybean oil quotes.

The normal continuous contract rolls to the front month without any adjustment of past prices. This type is usually used for viewing long-term charts.

The back-adjusted contract adjusts past prices at each roll to remove the appearance of any false gain or decline during the roll. The back-adjusted contracts are typically used for back-testing trading strategies.
