Thanks for checking.

It seems the TFZ8 would be a futures on TF, which makes no sense at 
all. TF2Z8 would make more sense but that doesn't work either. ER by 
itself is also a stock and ER2 a futures contract. I guess we will 
find out soon enough and that would be expiration date for the ER2 I 
guess. I would like to know now so I can start getting data but maybe 
it doesn't exist and there won't be any data until it starts.
