The problem is the Days to Load in the chart for that symbol is too high. This is the relevant message:
The ETM17.dly symbol may not be the active contract month. | 2020-03-08 15:23:35.094
Unable to determine transition date based on volume from files: ETM17.dly, ETU17.dly | 2020-03-08 15:23:35.094

You need to reduce the Days to Load:
