Does anyone know the difference between @NQ# and @NQ#C (continuous) in IQFEED? Both seem to chart exactly the same, even through rollover.

· For combined session symbols, the first character is "+".
· For Night/Electronic sessions, the first character is "@" (example @ES) or "Q" (example QCL).
· Replace the Month and Year code with "#" for Front Month (ie. @ES# instead of @ESZ13).
· Replace the Month and Year code with "#C" for Front Month back-adjusted history (ie. @ES#C instead of @ESZ13).

The first is front month, while the second is front month back adjusted history...
