Post From: Continuous Contract Selection Only Goes Back to 2021 — Not 2011

I'm trying to download all available NQ tick data through the Denali Exchange Data Feed. The Denali documentation states that tick by tick data for popular CME futures contracts begins at 2011 and 1-minute data starts in 2008.

When I do Edit >> Delete All Data And Download on my continuous contract chart, the Multiple Symbol Selection Window only lists contracts back to NQM1 (June 2021). I expected to see contracts going back to 2011 (NQH11, NQM11, etc.).

My setup:
- Service: SC Data - All Services (Denali Exchange Data Feed active, CME exchange activated)
- Intraday Data Storage Time Unit: 1 Tick
- Maximum Historical Intraday Days to Download: 9999 (both Non-Tick and 1-Tick)
- Chart symbol: NQM6.CME
- Continuous Contract: Volume Based Rollover(same issue with date-based)
- Days to Load for Intraday Chart Data Type: 9999
- Allow Support for Sierra Chart Data Feeds: Yes
- Bar Period: 720 Min (same issue with intraday daily 1-0-0 setting)

I also tried manually opening NQM19.CME through File >> Find Symbol but the symbol did not resolve.

How do I get the continuous contract to include the older NQ contracts back to 2011? Is there a symbol format or setting I'm missing?
