Hi, I want to do back testing for HSF (Hong Kong index futures), and I will use 5 min data for last 20 years. Before I subscribe for the real time data feed, I just want the historical data. How can I do that by the lowest cost? Thanks! |

thanks for support! i saw this: "If you are not using the Sierra Chart Real-Time and Historical Exchange Data Feed, the limitation for the number of Historical Daily data requests per day based on service package are as follows. Trial accounts: 200, Package 3 (Standard): 1000, Package 5 (Advanced): 2000" so i want to know is there any request limitation for historical intraday data. And how many years of data (symbol: HS) can be obtained with this package. (one thing to mention is this future was expired every month.) |

No limitations on historical Intraday data. We will have to check but we think it goes back to about 2013. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

The symbols are in File >> Find Symbol >> Futures-Indices. The symbol begins with HS. You will also want to use the Continuous Futures Contract feature: Continuous Futures Contract Charts Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

hi, hangseng index futures (sysmbol: HS) have historical data back to 2013. However for mini hangseng index futures (symbol: HI) only have data back to 2016 Aug even I use continuous futures. Is there any methods so that I can get the historical intraday data for HI back to 2013 (just same as HS)? |

The HI contract has limited historical data.

This is not data that we have or would be adding because there is quite a lot of work involved in this. It was a lot of work to add the Intraday history for the HSI. The Hong Kong futures exchange does offer this historical data themselves but we are not sure it is in a format which can be directly read by Sierra Chart. Refer to: https://www.hkex.com.hk/eng/ods/historicalData.aspx If what we are currently offering is not going to work for you, just let us know if you would like a refund for the unused usage time.
