Zen-Fire data problem

[chonwayne]

Im having a problem, I can connect with Zen-fire on my laptop but I have no data feed for charts or anything, but I can get charts to build and dome data with simulated feed works fine. my desk top computer works fine with Ninja 6.5 and Zen-fire, my desk top OS is Windows XP but my lap top doesn't work with the same Ninja 6.5 and Zen-fire the only differance that I see is that my laptop is Vista OS, but my son's laptop has Vista and his Ninja works fine with Vista, I dont know what to do next to correct the problem?

Any suggestions I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,

ChonWayne

Hello ChonWayne,

Can you please tell me what instrument/interval you have selected in your chart?

Hello Jason,

I follow ES and ER and my NT works good on on desk top but not my laptop.

Thanks for your help.

Hello Chonwayne,

Please verify the lower left corner of the Control Center remains green displaying "Connected - Zen-Fire".

If you open up a new chart on your laptop does the issue persists; you display a blank chart? Try repairing the database at Tools-->Options-->Misc-tab and check again.

Try opening a new chart in a new workspace and check if you display data in your chart.

Hello,

Please follow the instructions below to rollover the expiration date of a futures contracts.

• From within the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools > Instrument Manager
• Highlight the contract you wish to rollover in the left side of the Instrument Manager window
• Press the ">" button (the instrument will disappear from the list)
• Press the "<" button and the instrument should re-appear with the front month expiration date
