Announcing a Game-Changer for Futures Traders: Continuous Contracts Now Available!

Hey folks! :waving_hand:

We’re thrilled to unveil a significant enhancement to our TV platform that will revolutionize how you trade futures: Introducing Seamless Continuous Futures Contracts!


For too long, futures traders have faced the recurring inconvenience of expiring contracts. The constant need to remove an expired contract from your watchlist, search for and add the new, active one, and then painstakingly re-draw all your indicators, trendlines, and analysis has been a real pain point.

Our new Continuous Futures Contracts eliminate this repetitive and time-consuming process entirely. Now, when you add a continuous contract to your watchlist, you can set it and forget it. As one contract expires, the system automatically rolls over to the next active contract in the series, ensuring your charts and analysis remain uninterrupted.

Here’s a GPT summarization of how this helps!

  • Uninterrupted Charting & Analysis: Say goodbye to broken charts and the frustration of reapplying your technical analysis. Your trendlines, support/resistance levels, indicators, and setups will persist seamlessly across contract rollovers.
  • Effortless Watchlist Management: No more manual updates! Your watchlist will always display the relevant, active futures contract, saving you valuable time and effort.
  • Consistent Historical Data: Analyze market trends with greater ease. Continuous contracts provide a more unified and consistent historical data series, making long-term analysis more accurate and insightful.
  • Enhanced Trading Experience: Focus on what truly matters – identifying opportunities and executing your trades – without the distraction of administrative tasks related to contract expiry.
  • Reduced Risk of Errors: Eliminate the potential for missed trades or incorrect analysis due to using an expired contract or fumbling with manual rollovers.

GPT response ends here xD


:eye_in_speech_bubble: Here’s how you can access it

Simply use the symbol search on our TradingView platform. For example, you’ll now find options like “NIFTY FUT 1!” (NIFTY FUTURES (CURRENT CONTINUOUS)) and “NIFTY FUT 2!” (NIFTY FUTURES (NEXT CONTINUOUS)) for popular indices like Nifty. Similar continuous contract symbols will be available for other futures instruments.

We believe these continuous contracts will significantly improve your workflow and elevate your futures trading experience.
