Data is stored in the folder named 'Data', which typically is located under your main Sierra Chart installation folder (e.g. C:\SierraChart\Data). You can view where your specific data file is located by reviewing the information at the following setting on your system: General Settings Window: Data Files Folder (Global Settings >> General Settings >> Paths >> Files and Folder Paths) Intraday data is stored in files with the file extension .scid. Daily data is stored in files with the extension of .dly. Refer to the following for how to free up disk space for no longer needed symbols: Chart Data and Chart Data Files: Cleaning Up Old and Unused Symbols for Efficiency We can not tell you how large the files will be, it depends on how much trading is done for a particular symbol. Replays do not use any additional file space. Sim Trading uses a minimal amount of space to store the trade information.
