How to load instrument list

[GrumpyTrader]

Is there a way to load in ninjascript
a) an instrument list, and
b) the list of instrument lists?

I'm using this in an addon.

Hello GrumpyTrader,

Thank you for your inquiry.

To answer your questions:

• You can access a particular instrument list by doing the following:
  

  InstrumentList theInstrumentList;
  
  foreach (InstrumentList instrumentList in InstrumentList.InstrumentLists)
  {
       if (instrumentList.Name == "Test")
       {
            theInstrumentList = instrumentList;
       }
  }

  You can then loop through each of the instruments in that particular list by:
  

  foreach (Instrument instrument in theInstrumentList.Instruments)
  {
       Print(instrument.FullName);
  }

• You would be able to loop through the instrument lists in your platform by doing the following:
  

  foreach (InstrumentList instrumentList in InstrumentList.InstrumentLists)
  {
       Print(instrumentList.Name);
  }

`

Please, let us know if we may be of further assistance.
