In case others search and find this question/thread looking for an answer.
As @USS Liberty said, in a normal Tradestation account the only way to trade Futures Calendar spreads is to leg them, one instrument at a time! Even if you are just trying to roll a position and not actively trade spread, you have to leg the roll.
The solution is to have a Futures+ account, which basically uses a white-labelled reduced functionality version of Trading Technologies. Problem with this route is you can NOT automate any trading through the Tradestation platform!
Why this involves two separate accounts and can't be combined into one escapes me!
