Post From: Downloading intraday data

Hello,

I have just started a free trial yesterday, mainly for Market Profile and FootPrint charts. I did manage to find my way through in creating charts or using studies. However, I am a little lost as far as downloading historical intraday data for symbols from IQFeed.

The footprint needs bid/ask/volume on a tick-by-tick basis (120 days in IQFEED), while I also need a 1 minute history (5-10 years in IQFEED) for market profile analysis on 30 minutes, daily and weekly buckets. I want to download historical tick-by-tick and 1 minute history. I used the chart and data settings and adjusted the number of intaday days to download the historical 1 minute and tick data. I tried the download in non-trading hours. I also tried "delete and download data" . I could only download the daily data. The SC did not download any historical tick and 1 minute data for any instrument.

Please also advise if it is possible to import the IQFEED symbol list (which is missing for Forex) and steps to download all historical (tick, 1 minute and daily) for a specified set of symbol lists.

Thanks,
