Recently I've turned off fillForward (which is on by default), because it gets me closer to reality. (Of course, this forced me to fix my sloppy code to check for null pointer exceptions)
It would save everyone a lot of time if there were a convenience method that returned exactly 100 slices, and only slices that have data for ALL symbols in my syms array.

Check out the SetWarmup method. It can be called as SetWarmup(int) or SetWarmup(Timespan)
I recommend also using the IsWarmingUp() method in your OnData event to prevent unexpected behavior

I'm using a shorter 5 day SetWarmup() period at Resolution.Minute... in addition, I have a 100 day History() at Resolution.Daily. 100 days of warmup at Resolution.Minute takes too long.
Maybe is there a way to adjust the SetWarmup resolution as you get to the closer to the start day?
Hi Keith; assuming you're talking about live trading - using the History API directly is probably the best bet for you.
We're finish off a new history server now technology now. It'll be roughly 100x faster :). It should be installed this week.
