You are not setup to get any real-time data from us, therefore you are getting your data from Rithmic. Rithmic has a lack of historical data, so using a "Continuous Futures Contract" can cause issues, as if the data is not there, then there will be problems downloading it from Rithmic.

We recommending setting the "Continuous Futures Contract" option to "None" in order to alleviate the immediate issue.

We also recommend using our Denali Exchange Data Feed instead of Rithmic in order to have access to historical data going back many years. Refer to the following:
Denali Exchange Data Feed

Just keep in mind that in order to get real-time data for the CME Group, you need to have a live, funded, futures trading account. Refer to the following:
Real-Time Exchange Data Feeds Available From Sierra Chart: Understanding and Accessing Data From the CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX Exchanges
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
