Startup question for Chart Data

It appears that all data is being reloaded (downloaded?) when i bring up sierra charts each day. Is there a setting that only loads the missing data from where it left off from the previous sierra chart usage?

This may be fine but for a few chart where I have hundreds of days to load this takes some time to do when I start up in the morning.

Is this time being taken for "loading" the already downloaded data into the chart for each contract? Or is it downloads each time?

Thanks

Definitely the data is only being loaded from the local data file. Only the data that is missing from the chart is downloaded.

This section makes that clear:
