Hello HT,
Go to this website http://www.bayou.com/~smcg/cdata.htm. Steve sells
tick data but also has (free I think) a little routine you plug into
your system that automatically switches to the next contract. I've
never used it but I expect it will get you started. Let me know ifl
you can't locate it and I'll dig around.
