issue with generic commodity tickers >9th future

[sapre101]

hi there. i think there may be a bug for generic commodity ticker greater than the 9th future;

the following code will not work; data=blp.bdtick('SB11 Comdty' , '2020-12-04')

workaround as follows DOES work; data=blp.bdtick('SB11 Comdty' , '2020-12-04', ref='SB1 Comdty')

(same workaround as you suggested for 'C 1 Comdty', 'W 1 Comdty')

will use workaround for now, but wanted to bring to your attention...

many thanks

thanks for point out - easy fix at the next release.

didn't expect people would be interested in the long-term contracts at this extreme - liquidities hardly provide enough meaningful insights.

Great.

indeed, most users wont be interested in the far end of the curve.. i have positions in some of these deferred contracts hence my interest :) Many thanks
