Hi,
Ask your datafeed provider to send a symbol guide to you. DBC edits one
frequently updated.

More explanations about US U9 for example :

US stands for US 30 Yr Treasury bonds
U stands for the month of the expiry date
9 is the year code digit

Months codes :
Jan = F
Feb = G
Mar = H
Apr = J
May = K
June = M
July = N
August = Q
Sept = U
Oct = V
Nov = X
Dec = Z

And when the market is not a US market, the market symbol will follow
For example : MATIF = MA
MT N9-MA is the July 99 MATIF CAC40 future Contract.

Rgds,

Philippe from Paris
