Hi, I need to download historical options data for backtesting purposes. Is it possible to download all puts/calls and strikes for a contract in one request within SierraChart? If not, can I do this using the DTC protocol? Which programming languages do you support (python is preferable but any language is doable). Is it correct that my SierraChart installation can serve as a DTC server for a client that I develop myself? Any help is much appreciated! |

You cannot access this data, with the DTC Protocol Server due to exchange rules. There is this ACSIL command which can be used for downloads: sc.StartDownloadHistoricalData() Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
