    Hi everyone

    I've noticed in multicharts ,into Quotemanager , sessions for Eminisp500 is set as : Equity index future [emini] Combined ,which has many different trading hours
    I've checked on CME site and the trading hours are different ,they seem , as sessions Equity index future [emini] Globex. this setting is after the first.

    Could someone explain me the difference , i'm a bit confused :confused:

    thanks

    by 'combined' they perhaps mean the rth - regular trading hours plus the o/n - overnight
    trading hours - ie: 08:30-15:15 + 16:00-8:30
    Globex futures trade '24 hours', stock and other 'open outcry' markets do not

    Hi Wallace

    Maybe is as you write, i made some tests and i've found that setting

    emini(globex) returns more data (ticks) , i think this is the correct setting.

    thanks to all :)
