'Data limitations for FX and CFDs'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello, we have an issue with data limitations, for example, a 360m chart can go only for a few months back same as all of the time charts
how can solve the issue as we need to see back beyond the 1 year
switching to historical data will change charts to daily and weekly and a lot of members are specific to certain time frames

following up with this
Historical Intraday Data (Missing Data / Download Errors / Viewing More Data): Downloading/Viewing More Historical Intraday Data

I have tested this process already before. It seems the maximum days to load is limited to less than a year for intra-day, Which is not enough. I see MT4 platform, for example, going back to 2017 for a 4H chart which is intraday. We can see the weekly and daily charts going back to more than few years but the 360M is very short, It's not even enough to scroll left and right.
please help me out , I have a number of users waiting to solve this issue

No that is not correct. What is the symbol? In most cases there is more than 10 years of Intraday data available. Definitively it is there.

Ok that is good to know but we can't pull it off, maybe you can show me how to do it? a live support session will be great please, that way I can learn and make a video lesson for our members. I am looking at EURUSD and all other intraday charts

Thanks in advance
Simon
