Kind of a dumb question.

How do you compare volume of 2 different contracts for rollover purpose in SC?

I know in NT, I can throw them into market analyzer and eyeball it, then trade the contract with more volume.

Thanks

Another way is to use the global cursor and the basic volume study. In any event, rollover for US indices is on the 2nd thurs of the rolling month. Volume will start shifting to the front month later in the day on that thursday.

Also, workbooks are in the process of or soon to be called spreadsheets w/in Sierra
