Post From: Historical Intraday Chart Data Not Loading for _MBO symbols

I am subscribed to US Equities Consolidated Tape and NASDAQ TotalView. However, whenever I try to load a symbol ????_MBO, I get an error message: "Historical Intraday Data Download Failed. Error downloading historical Intraday data for ????_mbo. Historical data file for ????_mbo not available."

Interestingly, if I FIRST load the symbol using Consolidated Tape [????] or TotalView [????-nqtv], and THEREAFTER load the mbo version [????_mbo], then it works and downloads the mbo historical data without any error message. In other words, it appears there must either be a ????.scid or ????-nqtv.scid file in the data folder as a prerequisite to downloading the mbo historical data. Why?

Sure, I could just brute force around this by always loading the Consolidated Tape or NQTV symbol version first, but I don't want to do that because I trade small caps and need to move quickly.
