The timezone on my charts and global settings is CST. when I export data to text file the timestamp is in UTC? this used to work fine but as of today and yesterday it does not. Exporting bar data to text file shows correct timestamp, but I can only get 30 days of Data

What you are seeing for the time zones is correct. The one export does it in UTC, the other in the Chart time zone setting.

Exporting Bar Data is going to export whatever bar data you have loaded for the chart at that time. Therefore, if you are only getting 30 days, then that must be what is loaded in your chart. Change the number of days to load to get more data output. Refer to the following:

Also refer to the following:
