I have not been able to download overnight historical data from IB for the last week.

This morning, after rolling over to Dec CL contract, I am now only able to see the last 20min of data from IB.

Something is terribly amiss. Please help.

Since you are getting some data from IB then it is not a general connectivity issue. The only thing we can do is point you to our documentation for issues with IB historical data here:

We cannot help with Interactive Brokers historical data issues beyond the documentation given. We recommend using the Denali Exchange Data Feed. This will solve the problem immediately. You need to complete the agreements here and activate the exchanges you need:
