Hi all,
I'm just looking for some reference material to create a continuous futures universe from some manually selected symbols? If anyone has a sample algorithm to act as a guide, that would be fantastic. As far as I'm aware, I know this functionality has been added to quantconnect, but so far it hasn't been added to the documentation.
Regards,

Hi Varad,Â
Just to confirm, to create a universe of multiple continuous futures, they need to be added individually?
AddFuture()
AddFuture()
AddFuture()…
