Hello,

Can I get history data from Tradestation if I use tradestation as NT's external data feed? Thanks.

Hello SunnyRain,

Thank you for your note.

Yes, TradeStation is supported as a data feed provider:

TradeStation can be used with NinjaTrader in the following ways:

• As a real-time data source to drive NinjaTrader as a trade simulator (More Information)
• As a provider of historical data to drive NinjaTrader's charting or system/indicator development (via text file import)
• As a middle man application to process trading signals generated from Easy Language strategies to any of the 100's of supported NinjaTrader brokerages (More Information)

Hello RJStein,

Thank you for the quick reply. How do I save Tradestation's data in the required format to NT? I saved the data file but it has two problems:
1. It uses comma to seperate each field (such as date, time, high, low)
2. It has a up vol and down vol in each line.

Thanks,

Thank you very much.

I just tried to insert NTExternalFeed strategy but it freezes TradeStation. It shows "calculating Analysis Techniques and/or strategies" forever . What might cause the problem?

Thanks,
