I have successfully downloaded and exported end of day data for various stock symbols. I created an instrument list for the stocks that I need and can download the relevant data with a few button presses.
However, in addition to my selected stocks I also need data (end of day for now, later on - tick) for some market indices - notably the Dow Jones Industrial index and the NASDAQ composite index. I added the symbols DJIA and COMP to my instrument list. Now when I try to download the eod data for these indices I get a message box containing
The date range that I tried was 1/1/2013 to 11/26/2014 (today - even though the market will only open in a few hours). For the stock symbols I get the data from however far back is available through yesterday and that's fine but nada for the indices.
Is historical data available for the indices and do I have to change some configuration to get it? If not this will be a deal breaker on my being able to use Kinetick historical data.
