Market Data Presets: Save Your Curve List and Download a Date Range

Last updated: July 6, 2026

If you pull up the same set of curves every day — and export their prices — the Market Data screen lets you save that list once as a preset and reuse it in one click, both on screen and in downloads. This guide shows how to save a preset, switch between saved presets (for example, gas curves vs. power curves), and download a preset's prices across a range of as-of dates. And if you're looking for the Market Data Query Tool from the previous screen: presets are how you do that same job here.

Save a preset

A preset captures your whole current view: the filters you've applied — product, dates, the Spots/Curves and Opt/Vol toggles, anything under More — plus any individual rows you've ticked. That last part matters: if filters alone can't express your list, tick exactly the rows you want and the preset remembers them.

Open the Market Data screen.
Build your view in the Filters panel — for example, filter Product by ticker or name, set the As Of date, and use the Spots/Curves and Opt/Vol toggles. Click Apply Filters .
Optionally, tick the checkboxes on individual rows to narrow your list beyond the filters. Row selections are saved with the preset.
Click Save as Preset — at the top right of the Filters panel, just above Apply Filters .
Name the preset and save.

Can't find Save as Preset? It's styled in gray text just above the red Apply Filters button, so it's easy to read as inactive or miss entirely. It's clickable.

Switch between presets on screen

Presets aren't just for downloads — selecting one applies its filters and row selections to the screen itself. If you keep one preset for your gas curves and another for your power curves, you can flip between them in one click instead of rebuilding filters each morning.

Open the Market Data screen.
Open the preset selector at the top left — it shows the active preset name ( All Results by default).
Choose your preset. The screen loads that curve list.

Download a preset across a range of dates

This is where presets replace the Market Data Query Tool's most-used capability: exporting prices for your saved list across multiple as-of dates in a single file.

On the Market Data screen, click Download at the top right and choose Presets .
The Download Presets dialog opens. It lists the built-in All Results preset — all commodities, all regions, all sources — along with your saved presets.
Click Settings on the preset you want to export.
In As Of , enter a start and end date. Every as-of date in that range is included in the export.
Optionally, set a Contract Date range to limit which contract periods are included.
Click Download.

Downloading your list, not everything: the built-in All Results preset covers every product. If you only want your own curves, run the download against a preset you saved — not All Results.

The other options under Download — Curves / Settles, Option Prices, Options / Vols, Current View, and Current View + Settings — cover different export types. Use Presets when you need a saved list across a date range.

FAQ

Where did the Market Data Query Tool go?

The new Market Data screen doesn't have a separate query tool. Instead, save your product list as a preset, then use Download → Presets to export it — including across a range of as-of dates, which is what the query tool was most often used for.

Do presets only affect downloads?

No. Selecting a preset also changes what's on screen — it applies the saved filters and row selections to the Market Data view, so you can use presets as your daily working lists, not just for exports.

How do I export more than one as-of date at once?

Go to Download → Presets, click Settings on your preset, and enter a start and end date in the As Of field. The export includes every as-of date in the range.

My download came back with every product — why?

You most likely exported the built-in All Results preset, which covers all commodities, regions, and sources. Save a preset with your own filters or row selections first, and run the download against that one.

Can I keep separate presets for different commodities?

Yes. Save one preset per list — gas curves, power curves, or any other set — and switch between them on screen or download each one independently.
