I currently use IQFeed to provide data to Ensign Software. I primarily trade index futures such as ES, YM, ER2, and NQ. Each quarter, I spend quite a bit of time updating workspaces and charts during rollover. In order to maintain the work I have done during the year, I must merge the data in the old contract into the data files of the new contracts. If i use 10 Time frames for each contract, that is 40 files....I think you get the picture.

I like the data and reliability of your service, however....you would you PLEASE add continuation contracts to your services...

TIA
