Hello SC Team,

It would be very helpful to know what the earliest date of data available for an instrument is in Symbol Settings.
This would also be helpful when moving across accounts, services and brokers to determine how far back the history goes for instruments we trade.

For example, if I want to know how far back price is tracked in USDX, I need to open a chart and set it up for daily or hourly data, then scroll back.

Perhaps this data is already available somewhere else?

Thank you,
Mike T

Symbol Settings are fully independent of the available market data. It is not possible to show the first date available.
