Is there one for index futures? I am mainly interested in ES and would like to be notified by email when rollover occurs and it is time to move to next contract. I will set it up via a google calendar manually if none exists, just looking for a site which has such a feature. Also, would be interested in other events which affect such instruments like FOMC announcement.
Most futures brokers send out email alerts about rollover and holiday trading schedule a week or so before such actually occurs. Also, most free calendars (e.g. Yahoo! Calendar) have alerts setups.

1) Write a notation on your blotter calenedar that stock index rollovers generally occur on the second Thursday of the delivery month. 2) If your March, 1-minute, bars/candles are looking spottier, chances are you missed the rollover day. :eek: 3) Since index futures are cash-settled, you don't have to be too concerned with "physical delivery". 4) Go to the calendar on the Fed's website for the FOMC dates.
