Hello,

I am trying to request 500 days worth of 30M bars... and it stuck right there but no actual download is happening.

I wonder if I should close down the program and restart, but afraid of losing the configurations on the chart.

UPDATE:

Tried delete all data and recalculate - didn't work
Tried closing the chartbook and re-open - didn't work

Now every chart in other chartbooks with the same symbol (ES) are in this state now.

UPDATE:

Switched the chart back to historical chart, data loaded without problem. Switched it back to intraday chart again with 10 days of 30M bars, not loading again.

Follow the instructions here to reconnect to the data feed:
File Menu: Procedure to Reconnect to the Data and Trade Servers

The connection to the data feed is going to be necessary in this case to receive the historical Intraday data. Otherwise, the charts can remain in this state.

If there is any missing data follow the instructions here:
Continuous Futures Contract Charts: Re-Downloading Continuous Futures Contract Data

As a last resort, refer to:
Historical Intraday Data (Missing Data / Download Errors / Viewing More Data): Improving Historical Intraday Data Downloading Performance

You will not lose anything as long as you save the Chartbook.
