                I have Sierra on my regular trading PC.  Today I downloaded Sierra chart on my MacBook Pro that runs parallels. After downloading Sierra on the my MacBook I copied my trading chart book from Sierra Chart > Data folder on my Windows PC to Sierra Chart > Data folder on my MacBook. When I turn on Sierra chart on my MacBook I keep getting message on charts "Downloading Historical Data", but nothing shows up on the chart. The only way I could fix this is by going to File > Data/Trade Services Settings > and from Service drop down 1st select SC Data - All Services (data) and subsequently selecting SC Futures Order routing/Data (trading). Only when I do the above will my charts load data.  |

                I guess the platform figured I complained :) it started working today. I still followed the above steps and sent the log by clicking "send for analysis" I sent it at 7:07AM EST on 09/28/2020.  |
