And it doesn't have to be repeated.

1. Go to File->Database Settings and make sure that you select "number of bars" large enough.
For 1 year it requires 260days * 8hours * 60 minutes per hour = 125000 bars for STOCKS
and 3 times more (375000) for futures (since 24 hours trading).

2. Go to File->Database Settings->Intraday settings and UNCHECK "Request data on save".
