What is the underlying table clustered on? If it's clus on identity, you should seriously consider clustering instead by date first, esp. if you (almost) always look up by date,...

I don't get any syntax errors. That error must be because of some text/code before or after the main code.
But you will likely get exec errors, since the...

Btw, you might want to seriously consider using "UNION ALL" there rather than UNION. I think you are going to force a massive sort of all the rows by using...
