Hello,

I have the symbol running fine but I can't get it to download the historical data properly. Is there anything you can suggest as to what I am doing incorrectly?

The implication from that message is that you do not have the Symbol Setting for "Uses Formula Operators" set to "Yes". But that would also imply that you should not get the real-time data either.

But double check that setting and ensure it is set to "Yes".

If that does not solve it, then refer to the following:
