Post From: Missing Historical Daily Forex Bars

Dear Support,

On some of the Forex pairs available in the SC All Data feed, the bar of last Friday is missing. After I manually select Edit -> Download Data - Historical Chart, the problem is (usually) corrected.

Also I tried to use the Edit -> Download Data For All Historical Charts in the hope that it will download the missing data on all instruments (there is an associated watchlist in the chartbook), but unfortunately it downloads the currently open chart's missing data only, so I have to re-download data for other pairs where the data is missing.

Please see below a screenshot of GBPJPY before/after the download:

In some rare cases, I experience just the opposite as well: when I have the Friday bar correctly displayed and I hit the Download Data - Historical Chart, the previously displayed bar disappears. Please see the before/after screenshots of GBPCHF below:

Having the last bar's data correctly displayed is needed because I am scanning on the chart/chartbook.

Can you please advise what setting should I adjust to automatically download missing data for Historical charts?

Thank you.
