OK we did not realize you are using an external service and not a Sierra Chart service. In this case you are connecting to IQ Feed. These are the relevant
messages:


IQFeed | Level 2 port reports server is disconnected. | 2016-09-29 13:05:22
IQFeed | Level 1 system message: SERVER DISCONNECTED | 2016-09-29 13:05:22
IQFeed | Level 1 connection to data server disconnected. Reconnecting. | 2016-09-29 13:05:22
Connection to the external service has been lost. | 2016-09-29 13:05:22

So the connection is being lost on the IQ Feed side. You will need to contact them for help with it. When a connection is indicated to be lost, Sierra Chart goes through a process of re-downloading historical data to ensure there is no missed historical data. This is absolutely necessary.

Consider using the Sierra Chart Real-time and Historical Exchange Data Feed instead:

You will also save a lot.
