Yes we could always theoretically create a column for strike price and Put/Call but that requires parsing the symbol and the format is not consistent. It may be obvious looking at the CME symbols, but it is not something we can reliably program. Update: although thinking about it we might be able to do that because these fields are contained within the security definition data as separate fields of information.
