I am only trading the E-Mini S&P Futures Contract. I like to keep a year of history in my charts. Which files can I delete in the attached image? I need to free up some storage from files over a GIG.

Thanks,

Elie

You can remove the following files:
- ESH26_FUT_CME.scid: This symbol is for Teton, and it does not appear that you have ever used this service.
- XAUUSD.scid: This is the CFD for gold.
- ESM26_FUT_CME.scid: This symbol is for Teton.

The other files are for the ES symbol for CQG. Since you state that you want to have data going back about year, that basically means keeping any contract from 2025 and newer.
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
