Hi guys,

Is it possible (in theory) to convert databento data dump (depth + tick data) for a given date say (1 March 2020) into a corresponding .depth and .scid files for a ticker for this date so that I can get market replay through sierra for dates far back in history.

The databento dump is in csv format. If I can encode the data into .depth and .scid binary files will this mean Sierra will be able to read from them as if it was a normal day?

As in are there any restrictions that prevent sierra from doing DOM replay for dates that are further back in history ?

All the best,
Spas
