I am convinced that the lack of a defined rollover rule is breaking the automatic download. I closed SC, deleted the files and re-downloaded everything. That almost worked, with some small gaps at rollover dates of around 10-15 days. But then attempting to re-download specific contracts (as per the instructions) creates big gaps after the volume rollover date again, around 3 months. I also saw some log messages detailing that the SC would skip a certain date due to file being present and no rollover rule defined, which could also create issues.

Whatever it is, its acting in a fairly random fashion and I cannot understand it.

Since this is the only contract I use that lacks a defined rollover rule, I assume that is the problem. All other contracts work perfectly fine when deleting and re-downloading data without the need to re-download individual contracts.

I am using the FTSE intraday contract code - I am not clear why your charts show XM for intraday data, as that is the historical contract code.
