I am new to QC and really impressed with the platform so far. I am particularly interested in options about which I have many questions.
To start, I am just wondering if we are missing a lot of option data this year, such as January 16, 22, 24, and everyday since February. The following script shows how many SPY contracts can be retrieved each day in the first quarter of 2018. The result shows essentially no data since Feb 1. Is this a known issue? Thanks.

Thanks Z -- please send bug reports to support@quantconnect.com for us to investigate. We're launching a new Data Explorer portal today which you can register concerns like this as well.

Thanks Jared for reponse. The new Data Explorer is very cool. The files there confirmed my findings in the notebook, i.e., no option data since Feb 1 (except for Feb 26).
I reported this issue there.
