Back adjusted continuous contracts for futures
Could you please add continuous contracts for futures with option of auto roll over based upon either date or volume. I have found plenty of features for day trading on PTMC but for swing trading purposes, option of adding continuous contracts is quite helpful.
Thanks!

Hello Mandeep, unfortunately, it depends on server side, PTMC uses various different brokers servers(CQG's FCMs, Interactive Brokers...) if broker's server provide continuous futures contracts we also support it, but if no, we cannot provide it ourself.

Thanks for your quick reply, Topol. I am currently using Ninjatrader 8 with AMP futures. You reckon I should get in touch with AMP regarding my request?
One small query, does lifetime license comes with multiple broker connection option or just one broker?

I have already asked CQG's support team(this is a technology provider for AMP, Wedbush...), I think they will reply me today and I give you more details. Yes, could you please ask AMP support too.
"One small query, does lifetime license comes with multiple broker connection option or just one broker?"
Yes sure, lifetime license comes with multiple broker connection option and all further brokers, data providers, new features will be also available. In closest future we are going to add Rithmic technology, which covers huge variety of brokers
CQG support just replied me - for now they do not support such option, but they are working on it already. So, I think AMP stores this data on their own servers

I paid $1300(lifetime license, single broker) couple of years ago for Ninjatrader and now regret it mainly due to lack of features that I have found in PTMC such as, footprint(cluster) charts, order flow, custom volume profile... I also had to open an account with Tradestation as their continous futures contract data is quite good for swing trading.
Only couple more indicators that I use are missing in PTMC, volume zone oscillator(VZO) and COT data. Options Master is a bonus feature for me. I am sorry, but I'll sit on all this new information before making any purchase - just trying to future proof my next platform. Hope, I am making sense.
Thank you so much for help!

We have separate developers department, so it is very easy to create these indicators. Could you please add feature request https://protrader.org/feature-request and we will add these indicators to PTMC in further releases
