FUTURESTRAC version 2.1 trading software takes the challenge out of tracking the different trading times, schedules, and contract months of the most actively traded U.S. futures (derivatives) and futures options markets. Quickly display essential trading information for any number of contracts in an easy to understand visual format while you trade. A simple and intuitive user interface, detailed context-sensitive help, and numerous customization features make the program easy to learn and use. Specific features include the display of multiple futures and futures options contracts, countdown timers (open and close) for floor and/or electronic sessions, contract trading schedules, timer alerts, contract months (active and serial), contract codes, and exchange links. Countdown timers and trading schedules are easily adjustable to any world time zone. The program also includes the new Fast Graphic (patent pending) rapid display feature, which allows traders to maintain a clean desktop display by replacing the program with a small, movable graphic that functions to quickly view or hide the program with a simple movement of the screen cursor.
