DX-M open time is given in OEC Trader as 5PM CT and the close time as 4PM CT. This given open time is in fact the unique Sunday open. The regular open time is two hours later, at 7PM CT. It misleads traders to present the special sunday open as the commodity's regular open.

Our traders may think the DX-M session is open when it is still closed. It also causes computation errors if you compute the special Sunday open time as simply two hours earlier than the regular open time.

Could you restore the regular open time for DX-M in the api, rather than giving us the special Sunday open?

Thanks,

For Contract Spec issues, this should be forwarded to our Trade Desk. I have forwarded your response to the appropriate department. The Forum is designed for programming/API questions.
