In addition to downloading directly from an open chart, you can also download long time periods or history for an entire quote page from the Download Data screen.
- Download Source and Type: you will generally use DTN MA (or IQFeed) as download source and have "Historical Data" automatically selected for such data source
- Periodicity: Specify here which periodicity of data you would like to download. You will have the choice bewteen Tick, 1-min bar and Daily. (Weekly and Monthly data will be in fact derived from imported Daily Bars).
- From and To: Here, you specify the range of date/times for which you would like to download.
- One Instrument / QuotePage: If you check the "One Instrument" checkbox, then you will need to specify a single symbol for which you would like to download. If this checkbox is unchecked, you will need to select the quotepage on the left on which you would like to download data.
