Futures price history
OHLCV history for a futures root. Returns the continuous front-month series by default, or a specific dated contract when 'expiration' (YYYY-MM) is supplied. Use period OR start/end, not both. Volatility roots (VX) are settlement-basis (price_type=settlement, T-1 daily bars with a settle column): expiration also accepts an exact YYYY-MM-DD date (weekly contracts); with no expiration the current front monthly contract is served (contract=front_month) - no continuous series exists on a settlement basis.
