Hi

I'm trying to export tick by tick or second by second data for NQ for the last 12 months to a text file.

I changed the settings to data by tick in the global settings and realised it was only per contract. As I want continuous contract data I am trying to download via the export bar data to text file.
, 45 etc.?

I use Denali data band set the data for 1 second (set in common settings in data trade settings) I am getting tonnes of second increments with NO data at all when the notepad pops up containing the data - please see copy and paste - where are seconds 36, 37, 43, 44
7,

For instance;

2023/3/24, 12:44:35, 12789.50, 12789.50, 12789.25, 12789.25, 2, 2, 2, 0
2023/3/24, 12:44:38, 12789.25, 12789.75, 12789.25, 12789.75, 2, 2, 1, 1
2023/3/24, 12:44:39, 12789.25, 12789.50, 12789.25, 12789.50, 4, 4, 3, 1
2023/3/24, 12:44:40, 12789.75, 12789.75, 12789.75, 12789.75, 2, 2, 0, 2
2023/3/24, 12:44:41, 12789.75, 12791.00, 12789.50, 12789.50, 14, 14, 5, 9
2023/3/24, 12:44:42, 12789.00, 12789.00, 12789.00, 12789.00, 1, 1, 1, 0
2023/3/24, 12:44:47, 12790.50, 12790.50, 12790.50, 12790.50, 1, 1, 0, 1
2023/3/24, 12:44:49, 12791.25, 12792.00, 12791.00, 12792.00, 10, 10, 5, 5
2023/3/24, 12:44:50, 12792.50, 12792.75, 12792.00, 12792.50, 11, 9, 1, 10

Even in busy periods it misses lines of date for each second out.

What am I doing wrong here?

Many thanks

Dean

You say there is no data but we can see some data. We are not understanding this.

There is not going to be trading every second.

Hi, yes there is trading ever second on NQ mini futures. It’s massive volume.

And even if there is no trading volume, surely the data should be provided every second in a tabulated format - that’s the point of define data as being output per second. You don’t fill in the blanks?
