Hi Czarek, unfortunately there is no direct control over this. But here is a workaround - open a normal chart of your product with your live connection. Then disconnect from it and connect to the Simulated Data Feed, the chart should now show a wide candle as the chart updates to the Sim Feed starting price. You can set this under each instrument in the Instrument Mananger - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...struments.html

Hi Bertrand,
There is not so good solution. You cannot get a gap live.
At first you have to open chart, and before you open a strategy gap already exist.
Is the Ninja Trader programmer going to develop gap controller?? Gaps happen very offend and there is very important to test your strategy with them before you go live? I think there is one of the most important things to up grate.
