I received the data fine yesterday, however, today orange and red alert boxes popped up as I was opening my chartbook. The orange box states: Symbol is unknown. Click for symbol information. Real-time data for instrument F.US.ENQ (corresponding to ID = 1) are not allowed.

The red alert box states: Download Failed. Error downloading historical Intraday data for F.US.ENQU21. Instrument F.US.ENQ (corresponding to ID 1) is not allowed.

What do these two things mean? I paid for the denali data multiple times since it wasn't working.. what's going on?

Activate the exchanges you need here:
https://www.sierrachart.com/UserControlPanel.php?page=DenaliDataFeed

Restart Sierra Chart and then:

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.

Hello, I would like to know why I can't find the symbols for the EMINI DOW, Crude Oil, and Gold as options to trade? I would also like to have them on my platform to trade. Thank you.

They are listed in File >> Find Symbol.

Are you asking about not receiving market data for these symbols?

Yes, I believe that is the issue, but I can’t even find them in the list of futures to trade under CME. How do I get those other symbols?

These symbols would be listed under Futures - CBOT / NYMEX / COMEX respectively.

And then you have to activate the appropriate exchanges from here:
