XAUUSD not working

[dcrichmond]

XAUUSD does not work with Interactive Broker. I added it to the instrument panel but was still unable to see chart data. Please note that I can receive data on XAUUSD thu interactive broker if I use Amibroker (a very old version), so the data is there, just not able to be read by NinjaTrader. I was told that version 8 would receive quotes for XAUUSD

Hello dcrichmond,

Thank you for your patience.

Can you confirm that you are unable to receive quotes for the XAUUSD in NinjaTrader 7 from TWS?

I look forward to your response.

XUUSD will not work with NinjaTrader 7. See this post

I was told that version 8 would fix this problem

Hello dcrichmond,

Thank you for your patience.

I am able to pull the XAUUSD future with NinjaTrader 8 and Interactive Brokers. You will however need to create the instrument by going to Tools > Instruments > Add. Please refer to the attached screenshots. Keep in mind you will need to select 'Edit Rollovers' and then right click and select 'Load Rollovers From Instrument' and I used the ES rollovers.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
