Hello

I went away from trading on the 17.10.25 and got back today, and all historical data since then is missing, is there a way i can download it? I tried with edit/download data for all historical charts, but that did nothing. I just have a void on my charts from 17.10- today.

What is the symbol for which you are having an issue?

Also, is this in a sub-instance? If so, then make sure you have the data in the main instance first, and then update the sub-instance and see if that solves the issue.

Es Mini.

I have 4 instances of sierra, and none of them have the historical data over the time I was gone.

Go to one of those Historical Daily charts:

Follow the instructions here to clear the Message Log:
Message Log: Clearing the Message Log

Fully re-download the data in the chart by going to the chart and selecting "Edit >> Delete All Data and Download". Only use this command from the Edit menu at the top of the main window or chart.

Or, in the case of a Continuous Futures Contract chart, follow these instructions:
Continuous Futures Contract Charts: Re-Downloading Continuous Futures Contract Data

After about a minute provide a copy of the Message Log following these instructions:

We will then determine what the problem is.
