Qcharts continuation?

If you mean "continuous contract" charts - the answer's no.
To do them right, you need to do more than just paste the end of the 2003 March chart to the start of the 2003 June chart - you have to normalize and massage the data across multiple contracts to create a continuous set of data.
Most realtime datafeeds don't do it, there are some data services that have offered continuous data for years though.

There is a service called "FutureSouce" which has nice continuation charts. Only thing I didn't like about it, it is a web-based program.
