The problem you are having is simply due to Interactive Brokers not supplying the historical data far enough back for what you want. The easiest way to get that data back would be to change your Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Current Selected Service to SC Data - All Services then open historical charts for the symbols for which you want to get the historical data. Make sure you set your date range for how you want it to get far enough back. Then, when you have that data downloaded, you would change your service setting back to IB. You would then need to change the filenames of the recently downloaded .dly files to match the symbols you are using for IB. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
