I am using package 3 for SPY historical data for back testing. However, we have the maximum data until 19h55 each day. I am wondering if it is possible to have 5m chart of e-mini historical data. If yes, it is same symbol as that frequently used ? If not, there is a way to have this historical data for back testing ?

Yes. The futures symbol begins with ES and can be found in File >> Find Symbol.

Thanks, I got it. But when comparing ES chart with that of SPY(I choose NY time in my chart setting), it seems that ES future in chart is Chicago time ?
