RE: NASDAQ futures continuous contract

["Guy Tann" <grt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Chuck,

I already have a couple of sample contracts, but I do have a question and a
request.

First, what is back adjusted or adjusted?  I hate to show my ignorance, but
I have absolutely no idea what this means.  For our continuous contracts we
have always used the current month to the end and then switch to the next
month.  With our modified contracts (used for other commodities) we switch
months when the next active month's volume exceeds the current (or delivery
month).  For other commodities, we ignore all of the minor months and only
use the major, active months.

If you could put a continuous contract together for me rolling over to the
next month when the current month dies, I would appreciate it.  That will
give us 3 different "continuous" contracts to look at.

Thanks,

Guy

Guy,

I can build a continous contract based on Nth nearest and rolling parameters
such as Vol, OI, Vol+OI, or specific time of month.  It can be unadjusted or
adjusted.  What would you like?
