Hello,
You are simply using WRONG SYMBOLS.
==========================
Read Symbology guide at:
http://www.amibroker.com/ib.html
and make sure that you use symbols EXACTLY
as it is described there.
You should not use YM SEP 05@xxxxx
but rather:
YM SEP 05-ECBOT-FUT
(there are EXACTLY THREE spaces between YM and SEP)
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko

> Hi,

> YM SEP 05@xxxxx

> YMU05 didn't work, etc.
>
> All of the data retrieved for this symbol -- and subsequently
> INDU@xxxx -- we're 36.75 or 36.76 -- no numbers related to the real
> action of the instruments.
>
> Also, the data didn't backfill, so if I started at 10:24, I had bars
> from then forward. I was looking to get at least yesterday's data.

> It's probably an error on my part with the symbols and/or back-fill
