NT7 not finding instruments

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

You can adjust the horizontal grid lines by right clicking in the y-axis and selecting Properties. You can adjust it in there.

The number spacing for the gridlines is automatically determined. Depending on how you size it, you will/will not see numbers.

This is what it look like.Session template is <Use intrument setting> (I tried the forex setting..nothing) and data is set to look back 5 days.
The screen shot does not show, but it is EJ 1 min.
Thanks for your assistance

I got it fixed. Thank you.
It was no historical data.
I do have another question,
How do I made the horizontal lines set a a value of my choice. for example 10 pips per H line and if possible can I get all the numbers in between the H-lines to not appear?

Can you please provide a screenshot of what you are seeing? Have you checked the session template being selected for the instrument you chose? Can you please ensure you have data for this instrument by looking at what is available in the Historical Data Manager?

On one of my computers NT7 seems to be fine. On my other computer I am getting just a white chart with no indicators/candles/lines or anything. I have uninstalled NT7 and re-installed it to no avail. Any ideas?
Thank you.

You can just type in the forex pair you want to see in the top left. Please see here for more information on navigating and using the Data Series window.

Ok. well I can do that but all I get is a white chart with no indicators at all. candles or WMAs or even H-Lines are not visible.
I am pretty good with 6.5 but I sure cannot seem to get started on NT7. Any more suggestions?

Unsure where to ask this basic question so I will do so here.
I have been using NT 6.5 for quite a while and am now trying to change over to NT7. My first problem is trying to figure out which of the options for charting is for forex? It gives ES, FDAX, NQ, TF, YM, ZB, DOW, NASDAQ, RSS and SP. How do I get it to chart for Currency?
Sorry if this is too basic but I really don't know.
Thank you

designer, what was the error message it showed?

[designer]

I installed NT7 in another computer and I am still not able to search any instrument when I click the "Search" Button in Instrument Manager in NT7.
I am connected to IB as it is shown on my Control Center on the Lower Left.
It showed the instruments the first time after installation but gave an error message and after that no instrument showing any more. Please advice. Thanks

designer, the new videos are available through the help guide. Can you please list the exact steps you're taking that provide you with no results? I just searched for E, like in the help files, and everything turned up as expected.
