Historical Intraday Data Not Downloading Far Enough Back - MBTM2

Hello Sierra Chart Support,

I am having an issue downloading historical intraday data for the Micro Bitcoin Futures (MBT) continuous contract.

My setup:
- Service Package: 11 (Integrated Advanced)
- Data Service: SC Data
- Symbol: MBTM26-CME with Continuous Contract enabled
- Intraday Data Storage Time Unit: 1 Tick
- Maximum Historical Intraday Days to Download: Non-Tick Data = 2000, 1-Tick Data = 2000
- Chart Days to Load: 3000

The problem:
After performing Edit >> Delete All Data And Download, the data only goes back to early February 2026. I need the data to go back to at least 2022.

Steps I have already tried:
1. Set Non-Tick Data and 1-Tick Data to 2000 days
2. Performed Edit >> Delete All Data And Download multiple times
3. Continuous Futures Contract is enabled on the chart

The Date Range In File From field shows 2025-05-20 and I cannot manually change it as it is read-only.

Could you please advise what I need to do to download the full available historical data for MBT going back to 2022?

Thank you for your assistance.

Everything you have done is correct, and you should be getting the data.

What is "Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Continuous Contract" set to?
