Okay I was able to get the dates further back. Now Im having an issue with the prices based on the contract changes. The prices are different than on my trading reviews.
Is there a way I can the prices to be what they were back then and not what it is now based on these contract prices?

Yes just make sure that Chart >> Chart Settings >> Advanced Settings >> Continuous Contract is not set to one of the "back adjusted" options.
