contract.
Replace “symbol” with the actual contract symbol.
Shortcut Opens
symbol? most active month
symbol?1 spot month
symbol?2 second month out
You can combine wildcards with interval and continuation values, e.g. EP?1,DC.
Wildcards are especially helpful in creating QFormulas for strips that roll over as contracts
expire.
