Hi I read and followed the steps from a few of your guides to try to solve this problem but it's not worked for me at all. I want to have access to at least 10 years of intraday historical data for backtesting reasons, or as much data as it's available. However I can only see data beginning from mid May 2019 for the MES futures. I'll attach some screenshots with my current settings after I followed your guides. Please help me fix this and don't just refer me back to those guides, but help me identify the specific problem, because this has already taken up a lot of time to try to fix let me know if you need me to provide any other screenshots

This data is not available anywhere because it does not exist. You should be aware of that. You need to use ES futures. Not MES.

We do not have this information: please would you link a page where I can find the different historical data amounts you have available per symbol? You need to ask the exchange regarding listing dates, for the different contracts. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
