.. who is supplying that # symbol data and why is it not entirely reliable?? There is a reason why we do not provide support for these symbols. In short, there can be missing data, inaccurate data, and incorrect rollover dates. You do not want to use these symbols. We will not say anything further about this.For the amount of historical data available when using the Continuous Futures Contract feature, refer to: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/ContinuousFuturesContractCharts.html#Limitations You can temporarily change your service package to 5 to get the initial history, then after that you can change it back to 3. Let us know if you want us to do that. is it possible to use Barchart.com data feed into SC and get the 25 year charts they offer on their own website? We do not know what symbols you are referring to. In any case, there should be no need for this. But if you want more history you can use the SC Exchange Data Feed as explained in the Limitations link above.You can use the cash market symbols that end with Y00. Any unanswered questions are not within the scope of our support and will not receive a response. how complicated can this "back adjustment of data" become? The Barchart symbols you have been using are not back adjusted, so back adjustment is not something you want to use. Therefore, this is not relevant.You have to decide whether you want to use the cash market symbols or the futures symbols. The cash market will be more stable pricing assuming the price data is available. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
