I connected to MY IQFeed which I have access to live futures data from NYMEX, Crude Oil futures, Level 1 data. I then wanted to Download some 1 tick and 1 minute data to run a strategy script that I paid someone to write for me. So I opened Tools -> Historical Data and clicked the Load tab at the bottom. I then selected contract CL 02-21 and checked boxes next to Tick and Minute Intervals and Ask, Bid and Trade Data Types. I left the default date range. I then clicked the Download button on the right, and at the bottom of the screen it says it says "Loading Data CL 08-20 (6/12/2020 - 6/19/2020)".
This seems like an error because i selected contract CL 02-21 and it says it downloaded data for CL 08-20. I then clicked on the Edit tab and in fact the only data there was for CL 08-20, so it appears it downloaded the wrong data.
