I've read all I can find regarding downloading data in Sierra, but still haven't found an option to download several years of continuous futures tick data in one .txt file. I can export only symbol by symbol and this is frustrating.

I know that there is an option to download bar data in chosen timeframe, but I need it in ticks.

Is there a way to help me out?

Thank you

Setup your chart the way you want it, in particular make it a 1 trade chart for the time frame you want. Then select Edit >> Export Bar Data to Text File.

Refer to the information for this command here:
Edit Menu: Edit >> Export Bar Data to Text File

This is not an option.

Using Export Bar Data to Text File we are exporting the data of the loaded chart bars to a text file. Each record/line in the text file will represent one bar of data.

I'm looking for option to export tick data.
