I'm having a problem with CSI Unfair Advantage
and I'd like to ask for help.  Would somebody
please replicate the experiment below and verify
(or refute) the buggy behavior I am seeing?
It takes about 2 minutes to do.


  1. In the portfolio tool create a new portfolio
     called "boogah" or something.

  2. Add a single commodity to the new portfolio -
     Heating Oil ("HO") - with these properties:

             Adjusted Continuous
             Backwards Adjust
             ONLY click these 6 months: G J M Q V Z
             Roll on calendar date:
                     11th date from beginning of month,
                     1 month before expiry
             Build continuous contract both in CSI
                     format and in ASCII format

  3. Does the continuous contract builder software
     "hang" and never complete?  It does on my UA
     setup here.  But if I change any of the properties
     listed above (e.g. add another month), the bug
     disappears.

Thanks a million,
