Can somebody tell me the trading hours for following
(1) QQQ
(2)DIA
(3)SPY
(4) E Mini S&P 500
(5) E Mini Nasdaq 100
(6) E Mini Dow

Also Can you seperate day sessions from combined sessions for all E Minis?

If yes how?

Which is better for tech analysis ; Day session only or Combined day & night?

Can you also please give me the link to DTN web page where I can find Symbols for ALL WORLD Indices and Futures on those Indices if they do have them?


Thank You
Greg

You cannot separate sessionis on the Emini because there is only 1 session. Some software will allow you to set the hours to display on charts, thus creating a sort of "synthetic session". Our DTN.IQ software doesn't support this, but some 3rd party software does.

Thank you Jay,

Should I put @ before every symbol of the futures contract or is it for only Day + Night session?

Also can you please give me the links for World Indices?

Do you offer data for foreign markets too? If yes can you please give me the links?

Thank you

The @ is for electronic contracts. Thus, if something trades 2 sessions, use @ for the electronic and remove the @ for pit session. On some of these we will have a combined session symbol available in which case you use a "+" in front of the symbol instead of @.

The link to the symbol guide shows you all markets we cover. Under the Incides you should be able to find what you are looking for, or us the symbol search and choose Index and enter a portion of the name. If you post the symbols you are looking for to the Data and Content forum, our Market Data group should be able to provide symbols for you.
