Hi,

I am trying to get more historical daily data for DX,but file goes only one year back...??!!
I have set:Advanced Settings--->Continuous futures contract-volume based rollover,tried to delete whole file and download again but it doesn't work.Days to load is set to 9999.
How to get more then a year of data for DX daily chart?

Make sure the Service in Sierra Chart is set to "SC Data-All Services" and not SC Forex Data.

Follow the instructions here to re-download the data:

Actually we realize there are no rollover rules defined for that futures contract. We are doing this now.

This problem is now resolved. Update the Symbol Settings as explained here:

After this go to the chart and select Chart >> Reload and Recalculate.

Thanks,that worked!
Thumbs up for swift support and good customer service.

Now it goes back to 2005,but i would love to have more data as i need to look for supply levels above current price,which has not been retested in more than decade.
Data should go back to 1985. when contract was released.So is there a way to get more data for the contract?

Yes. For very long term analysis use the symbol DX#.

It goes back to 1985-11-20. You need to increase the Chart >> Chart Settings >> Days to Load setting.
