Missing Intraday Soybean Data

Looking at intraday data for CBT Soybeans.

Using Interactive Brokers data, looking at the roll between ZS-201107-ECBOT.scid and
ZS-201111-ECBOT.scid. Volume Based Rollover method gives roll date of 23-June-2011 but new contract data only goes back as far as 1-July-2011, leaving a 7 day gap.

I tried checking against SC data which normally agrees but in this case I couldn't find any intraday or daily data at all for Soybeans, i.e. SX16.scid is empty. I also get an error message about "SX16 Date based rollover rule not defined for symbol. Unable to build continuous futures contract chart" even though I have Volume Based Rollover selected, so not sure what's wrong here.

The corresponding Sierra Chart Historical Data Service symbol for this is ZSX16. The missing data has now been added. Re-download the data in the chart. Refer to:

Thank you that works. In general, what is the relationship between IB and SC historical data?
