You are changing the wrong date entry item. You need to set the option for "Load Data Limiting Method" to "Date Range". Then you can enter the start date of the data to load in the chart and leave the end date as blank in order to get the most current data. Refer to the following:
Chart Settings: Load Data Limiting Method (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Data Limiting >> Date Range and Limiting Method menu)

Chart Settings: Load Data Limiting Method: Date Range >> Date Range From / To (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Data Limiting >> Load Data Limiting Method: Date Range menu)

Make sure that the entered start date is the day of the week you want for your starting date.

The reason the date you are changing (Date Range in File From) is not changing, is that this is a Futures Contract with a limited start and end date. 5/2/2024 must be the start of the data for that symbol. In order to get additional data going further back, you would need to use a Continuous Futures Contract chart. Refer to the following:
