hello,

i c that there r new scid files since the new versions - for example ESH22_FUT_CME
is it safe to delete the older scid files ? for example ESH22 | ESZ19 etc.

and also if i want to load data from older files that i have, do i need to keep the older scid files or if theres a request for older data the new type of scid will b re-downloaded anyway?

As long as you are getting data from our Denali Exchange Data Feed, then you can delete the .scid files you want and if you have a need for that data, then the data will be redownloaded.

Refer to the information at the following link for how to find the symbols that are not in use and then delete the appropriate files:
