I am creating a weekly chart using day session values of the mini S&P futures. For "use date range" I have a Start Date of 2012-12-30 which is a Sunday.

The "Date Range in File" starts 2016-11-04 which I am guessing is the start of data for the June 2017 contract.

I have "Automatically Rollover Futures Symbol" and "Continuous Futures Contract - Date Rule Rollover, Back Adjusted" selected.

I use CQG-Web. (My access to CQG is via Tradovate.) For Historical Data, for non-tick data I set 1500 days to download in the Global Settings: Data/Trade Service Settings window.

The first bar displayed is 2016-09-08. I would like see much more data on a weekly chart, really up to 5 years if possible. Also, the bars start on Thursday, even though I put a Sunday (2012-12-30) as the Star Date in Use Date Range.
