Rithmic/Denali - Historical Data

View Count: 1328

My setup: Rithmic = Routing / SC Denali = Data, i.e. in 'Data/Trade Services Settings' I have only selected 'Rithmic DTC' + 'Server List' location + 'Trading User Name'. In other words, I have not entered my Rithimc details for live market/historical data.

The live market data I see should thus be SC Denali data. This works very, very well.

When I try to load charts with historical data this setup fails. I get a message saying that 'historical data download failed' and that this is because I have not provided my Rithmic historical data details.

--> Can I not use SC historical data in a way analogous to SC live market data? / Do I have to use Rithmic historical data?

Many thanks.

It's possible that we are checking the connection before downloading the historical data from us. Enter your credentials for the data in the Data/Trade Service Settings and then select File >> Disconnect followed by File >> Connect to Data Feed. Then see if you continue to have an issue and let us know.

Also, just to make sure, we want to point out that you are only signed up for the CME, CBOT, and EUREX data. If you are trying to get a symbol from another exchange (such as NYMEX), then the system will try to get that data from Rithmic, which will fail.

I have entered and saved my credentials for historical data (but not live market data). --> The issue remains.

Yes, I am only trying to load historical data for products listed on the exchanges I am subscribed to.

I should have added... and I disconnected and reconnected after adding my historical data credentials.

Also... I just spotted that the message now contains, after the download failure bit, 'permission denied' instead of needing to provide credentials... in case that helps?

Thank you both for your replies above.

--> Since this is a persistent issue across all symbols for me, I have sent you the log directly just now (after clearing/re-downloading).

Thank you for looking into this.

We see what the issue is. We will have this resolved later today.

At that time you will need to do the following:

Follow the instructions here to update the Symbol Settings:
Global Symbol Settings: Update Global Symbol Settings

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.

Did you take the steps you were intending to? The problem remains across all symbols.

I have 4 days of usage time left. I was going to take out a subscription for 6 months now, since all the other Rithmic/SC issues have been resolved.

--> Do you think that you will be able to fix the issue? If this is not possible in the forseeable future, please let me know.

I have performed the update/reconnection/log deletion and uploaded the log directly.

In case it helps us resolve the issue, I have also uploaded the 'chart' directly to you...

Many thanks in advance.

I see. Sierra Chart is an amazing platform, and your expertise is mostly unmatched. Switching from my previous platform of 12 years has been a pleasure. The customisability and speed/implementation really stand out, as does your knowledgeable support.

Having said the above, and whilst I understand that Sierra Chart has a relatively low cost recurring subscription business model - would you perhaps consider a rebate/credit in light of this fundamental issue? I was obviously led to believe that I would be able to use the platform to see historical data (essential feature) when taking out my current subscription... and I have unfortunately cancelled my previous platform. Also, I had intended to renew now with the 6 month subscription (at 20% less)... but am unsure what to do now. It would be lovely if you would consider a rebate for this month/until the historical data issue has been fixed.

Many thanks.

Hello, I realize that this is an old thread, but I have the same setup as above:

"My setup: Rithmic = Routing / SC Denali = Data, i.e. in 'Data/Trade Services Settings' I have only selected 'Rithmic DTC' + 'Server List' location + 'Trading User Name'. In other words, I have not entered my Rithimc details for live market/historical data."

And a very similar problem:
- I get the message "Historical Download Skipped" when I disconnect/reconnect with Rithmic Direct - DTC
- To download historic intraday data, I had to switch to "SC Data - All Services", download data, then switch back to Rithmic again for order routing/trading.

Would I be able to send you a message log?
Edit: I have followed the instructions above, and sent a fresh message log using "Send For analysis" with the message "Historical Download Skipped"

Thank you

Thank you, I will do this.

Just to double check, after translating symbols to Rithmic, will I still be receiving market and historic data from Sierra/Denali?

(Allow Support for Sierra Chart Data Feeds == Yes)
