in DTS settings, the max historical intraday days to download is set to '8' days. my chart's Days To Load is set to 3 days and i have volume-based rollover selected for continuous contract. When i am loading a symbol for the very first time, it downloads only 8 days worth of intraday data, like it's supposed to. But when I, for example, switch to a different symbol in the chart, and then load the original symbol again, the symbol starts downloading much more intraday data, starting from 11-28-2018. Because this particular instance is only used for order entry, I have no need for so much intraday data but I'm forced to download much more than I need. I'm using Rithmic data, if that's relevant. |

This is because you are using the continuous futures contract option. You need to disable that.
