v5.12.0

New Features

v5.8.1

Bug Fixes

• Fixed SymbolParser.parseInstrumentType handling of futures expiring between the year 2000 and 2009. Prior to the fix, a symbol ZCH08 would have had its year set to 2028 instead of 2008. Please note that this is different from the ZCH8 which does imply year 2028.
