Hello!
I use SC through AMP trading firm. i`d like to watch chart (1H) of historical data for DOWT (dow jones transportation index).
I choosed DOWT from "indexes (real time)", but i get message on chart "Symbol is unknown, download failed".
What problem?

when i open "indexes" there is no DOWT. DOWT is only in "indexes (real time)", but it is not loaded.

As the documentation says you do need to install another copy of Sierra Chart set to use the Sierra Chart Historical Data Service.

i tried my previous SC direct account (i used 4 years ago), the trial expired. so no service package is activated now. But i have opened account at Gain Capital/OEC.
Can i use SC with no service package and watch DOWT through Gain Capital "Data/trade service settings" ?

I got trial SC. Connect to Gain Capital using "Data/trade service settings". But still it is the same: "indexes" there is no DOWT. DOWT is only in "indexes (real time)", but it is not loaded.
I loaded DOWT from SC direct login, but it is limited to february of 2017. I cant download more historical data.
How can i download more historical data (back to 2009) for DOWT?

You need to use the service in Sierra Chart named SC Data-All Services.

And to get more data, refer to:
