Download historical data for ES & NQ 2024

[Alpha2Omega007]

I want to download minute interval data starting 1st Jan to 31st Dec (i know its few days away). I try to export from historical data using instrument as ES 03-25 & start date as 12/31/2023 end date 12/15/2024 but the file do not contain the data as desired.

What is the way to download this data?

Thanks in advance!!

Hello Alpha2Omega007 ,

Thank you for reaching out.

Historical tick can be downloaded at Control Center-->Tools-->Historical Data-->Load-tab-->Download when connected to a broker/data feed that offers the requested historical data.

When downloading futures data, you're restricted to downloading the data that is available for the specified contract that you enter, from the time it rolls over to the date it expires.

For items like the MES, this is going to be 3 months. For example:

When downloading data in NinjaTrader and selecting the MES 12-23 Contract for January 1, 2023- December 31, 2023, I receive data from September, October, and November until December 12, 2023 at that is the data that specific contract was set to roll over.

I would not get data from May, for example, because the 12-23 contract was not active at that time.
