Post From: Help me understand why SierraChart goes to CQG to get historical data.

Why do you think it is getting the historical data from CQG?

Since you are using the Denali Exchange Data Feed, any symbol for which you have an exchange activated will have all the data coming from the Denali Exchange Data Feed (in your case, this is all the symbols from the CME Group). This includes all historical and real-time data.

Any data for which you do not have an exchange activated (such as EUREX) will have the data coming from CQG, or at least will try to get it from CQG, but if you are not authorized to get the data from CQG either, then you will see an error.

In other words, it's all or nothing. You either get the data from us or the data from CQG. There is no data from one mixed with the other.
