1. Any package has access to the historical data. For how much historical data we have available, refer to the following: Sierra Chart Historical Data Service: What is Included 2. There are no additional fees in order to access the historical data. 3. It depends on how you are accessing the data. If you export the bar data as it is displayed in the chart, then the choice of rollover will affect the data. But if you access the data directly from the .scid files, then the rollover has no impact on that raw data. 4. The switch between contracts is always at a new bar. There is never a bar that contains two different contracts. 5. It depends on how you export/acccess it. For the .scid format, refer to the following: Intraday Data File Format 6. We can not answer this. 7. We can not answer this. 8. Just that each contract is saved in its own .scid file. So if you actually parse the data from those files, and depending on how you need to enter it in the other system, you may need to create your own rollover rules. -- We do have to wonder, why you are going to such lengths to get data to another system. Why not just use Sierra Chart for all your needs? For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
