Need help getting /RTYH25 data from Schwab

[saturn33]

This futures stuff is maddening. I cannot get it to work for RTY. It works for other March 25 contracts, but not for RTY. I go into "Instruments" and "Define" my contract - /RTYH25 (I have done this with many other contracts, like /ESH25, /GCG25, /SIH25, and more). But MW is not recognizing or accepting the /RTYH25 symbol when I do a search for instruments. It just returns the attached, which then shows no data at all. So what is different about /RTYH25? I see I have similar problems with /NQH25. Yet /ESH25 and /CLH25 work.

Also, I have tried everything I can think of and I cannot make a continuous contract with Schwab data. Has anyone been able to do this? How did you succeed with that?

Also, prior to today, I had /RTYZ24 working, along with the rest of the Z24 contracts. But today the data stopped appearing - so I need to rollover to the next contract. But when I right-click on the instrument and then click on "Roll to next contract", nothing happens or changes. Why not? See attached.

Thank you for your help.

I tried to custom define NQ and RTY and it seemed works. In both cases I did not provide the contract specifics and simply used /NQ and /RTY.

Cheers

But did that give you continuous contacts? Or is there another set of steps involved for that?

I will try it. Thank you.

UPDATE: I tried to set up a continuous contract and I get no data when I do. When I view the /RTY I defined, I do see current RTY data, but it only goes back to Sep 2024. Shouldn't continuous data go back farther than 3 months?

I think it picks up the latest active contract. As to the historical data to fill the rest, you would probably need a separate data provider. In the past the Schwab (TDA) did not offer Futures. This is something new.
I personally, look for an ability to execute Futures trades from MW and that would be enough.

Anyone know the solution to the problem of continuous futures with Schwab? If I remember correctly, it never really worked with TD either. I've been trying to add /CL, /RTY, EUR/USD, /GC, /10Y. Any help with the latest version would be helpful. TIA!
