I brought up this problem a while ago and I think you fixed it in MCL, but I still see the issue in so many markets. Here's one hopefully you can reproduce: I am on Trading Evaluator. Intraday Storage Time Unit is 1min. I have 6AH26 chart open. Automatically Rollver Futures Symbol is Yes Continuous Futures Contract - Volume Based Rollover, Back Adjusted Chart Data Type is Historical Chart I have a weekly chart with data from 2000-11-05 til now. The issue is I see so many logs requesting data from the last century and it eats into my monthly historical data request limit. This is just a small segment below: 2026-02-14 19:21:28.212 | Triggering next historical data download in queue. 2026-02-14 19:21:28.213 | Mapping 6AM14 to 6AM14.
