You are getting the data from Rithmic, and Rithmic has a lack of historical data. We recommend NOT using a Continuous Futures Contract with Rithmic data, as the system is trying to get historical data that it can not get from Rithmic. Refer to the following:
Chart Settings: Continuous Contract (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu)

If you want/need this historical data, then the solution is to use our Denali Exchange Data Feed instead. Refer to the information at the following link:
Denali Exchange Data Feed

Just make sure that you understand the CME Group requirement that you have a live, funded, futures trading account in order to get the real-time data at the non-professional rates:
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:
