Switched from Rithmic+Denali to SC Data, which caused a symbol change. Now Sierra is downloading everything from the beginning. Is this expected behavior? Could I have just renamed the existing ESM5.CME.scid file to ESM25_FUT_CME.scid? |

Is this expected behavior?
Yes. Sierra Chart stores the data based on the symbol. Could I have just renamed the existing ESM5.CME.scid file to ESM25_FUT_CME.scid?
No. Different services have the data in certain formats and that is reflected in the stored files. Therefore, you can not rename (or copy) a .scid file for one symbol to another. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
