hello, I'm using Sierra for years, absolutely satisfied except one thing - and this is the most ridiculous and complicated task using this platform. If i want to see 5 or x years of data on a forex 60 min or 240 min (intraday) charts, what is the simplest way to do it? Every single time i try to download years of data, its a complete joke. I read all those previous posts about this, but none of them helped. SO i figured out a way to somehow download the extended data to the chart, but once i have like 4 years of data on the 240min chart, i cannot ever change the start time or date anymore, so cannot add more days at all. WHY?????? For example: i have USDCHF on 60 and 240 min charts, data starting form 2015-02-01, why the hell i cannot add more days???? What decides the start date?? Total freaking joke, why is it so complicated??????????? Do you have some kind of step-by-step or manual to this process? Please, DO NOT send me the regular links, i've seen all of them and none of them helpful!!!!! Thank you, Zolie |

You can add more days. This is explained here: Historical Intraday Data (Missing Data / Download Errors / Viewing More Data): Downloading/Viewing More Historical Intraday Data But you really want to change the the Intraday Data Storage Time Unit to 5 seconds or higher to increase the speed of data downloaded: Data/Trade Service Settings: Intraday Data Storage Time Unit (Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Common Settings >> Common Settings) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
