Hello,

I can load at the oil future only 10 days. What can be the reason for this? With all other futures I have no problem.
Delete and Download Date has brought nothing.
Days to Load is set to 100 and I only get 10 days loaded.

We see you are using CQG.

We are no longer as of December 28, 2020 providing the Sierra Chart provided historical data service for CQG or Interactive Brokers users. For more information, refer to this Support Board thread:
Jan 1, 2021 Changes to Historical Data: Interactive Brokers, CQG

Also refer to this post for steps that you need to do now:
Jan 1, 2021 Changes to Historical Data: Interactive Brokers, CQG | Post: 245144

The solution to this problem is to use the Denali Exchange Data Feed for CME and EUREX (Upcoming in January 2021) data. Step-by-step instructions are here:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: CME/CBOT/NYMEX/COMEX Exchanges*

The first calendar month of this data feed is free. Let us know if you need help with the set up and we will help you through all of the steps.

In the case of CQG you will then need to contact your broker and cancel CME and EUREX exchange fees through your CQG account so you do not pay exchange fees twice. You definitively do not have to pay any market data exchange fees through your brokerage account to CQG. This is not required.

For other exchanges (ICE, HKFE) you need to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed:
Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed

As an alternative to CQG, we recommend using the Sierra Chart Order Routing Service:
Sierra Chart / Trading Technologies Futures Order Routing Service

In regards to using CQG provided historical data, we definitely do not recommend using that. It has an additional cost of 25 USD per month. The data delivery is slow and inefficient and causes Sierra Chart to freeze during the processing of it. Only 5 days of tick data is supported from CQG. And only current futures contracts are provided.

Whereas with Sierra Chart provided data feeds, you will have access to 10+ years of reliable high-speed delivered tick by tick data. Once again we do not advise using CQG historical data and it will not work well with Sierra Chart. And we also provide no technical help or support for any CQG provided historical data or real-time data.

Hello,

I have now the Denali Exchange Data Feed and now I often have display errors in the Foodprint Chart. I see only zeros there (see picture). What can be the reason for this?

You need to be using Tick-by-Tick data for the Footprints (Numbers Bars). Make sure your chart is set to tick-by-tick data by looking at this setting:
Data/Trade Service Settings: Intraday Data Storage Time Unit (Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Common Settings >> Common Settings)

Also, if that is historical data from CQG, then that would be another reason. You may want to delete all the data and have it redownloaded from the Denali Exchange Data Feed. Refer to the information here:
Edit Menu: Edit >> Delete All Data And Download
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:

Re-download all the data in the chart by going to the chart and selecting "Edit >> Delete All Data and Download". You just need to do this once per symbol and not for each chart.

Also disable any volume filtering:
Chart Settings: Volume Filter (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Data Limiting >> Volume Filter Settings menu)
