Do I need to fund my account to use my live data?

Do I need to fund my account to use my live data? I bought a license, put the license code into account, and linked my think or swim. But I cant use historical data to backtest my bot. So do I need to fund my account for it to work? I only trade US stocks no futures. How much do I need to fund my account for stock trading? On strategy anazlyser it only gives from 6/1/22 to the current date. Even if I make it start at the beginning of the year, when checking orders it only goes back to 6/1/22
