Post From: Request for Extended Historical Intraday MNQ Data

Hello Sierra Chart Support,
I am writing because I cannot access historical intraday data beyond December 2025, despite having purchased your MBO data subscription (the premium tier at approximately $50) and also having a Rithmic CME data subscription through AMP Futures.
My goal: I want to use Chart Replay to backtest on 1-minute MNQ data going back to at least January 2025, ideally further back to 2019 when MNQ was introduced.
What I have tried based on your documentation:
  1.  Connected to Rithmic Direct - DTC through AMP (server: Rithmic 01 - Chicago Area Non-Aggregated)
  2.  Increased “Maximum Historical Intraday Days to Download” to 20,000 for both Non-Tick Data and 1-Tick Data in Common Settings
  3.  Opened MNQ?##-CME as a continuous contract symbol
  4.  Set Continuous Contract to “Continuous Futures Contract - Date Rule Rollover, Back Adjusted” in Chart Settings
  5.  Restarted Sierra Chart multiple times and allowed data to download
  6.  Tried rollover options when prompted
  7.  Tried clearing data and re-downloading
Result: No matter what I try, when I open Chart Replay and attempt to go back to January 1, 2025, the earliest available data is still only from December 2025 - less than one month of history.
I am paying for two data subscriptions and cannot access even one month of historical intraday data for backtesting purposes.
Please provide clear step-by-step instructions for how to access historical 1-minute MNQ data going back at least one year using my current subscriptions. If this is not possible with my current setup, please explain what additional steps or subscriptions are required.
Thank you for your assistance.
