Need some help on the futures contract names for GC and MBT.
Also when to roll over. Quite happy with ES, NQ, YM and RTY
contracts I have been trading for years now but get caught by gold
and bitcoin.
Hi Mugsy, I trade on Tradestation and use the MESM23 etc
tickers. using the MGC and MBT tickers is where I am struggling. I
have seen some sites such as COMEX showing monthly GC's but
when I try to open hte chart in Tradestation very few of those
populate. Presnetly I have MGCM23 (June)which is working well. I do
believe it expires at the end of May. So I have been using a bit of
hit and miss with the GC and MBT contracts. Would like a schedule
which shows the best contract names to use.
