importing future historical data

[randomcz]

Hi there,

I bought future historical data from Pi Trading. The contract price have been rolled over into a continuous contract at 1-minute interval. I imported them followed by the online doc instruction, and I am pretty sure there is noting weird in the log. For example, I imported eMini natural gas continuous contract data into the instrument "QG 06-09". But when I look at the chart at particular time, say, 2007/01/01-2007/08/09, the data does not pop up(I am sure there is data available at this time). What is the problem here? And what is the best way to import continuous future contract into NT6?

Thanks,
Zheng

I am not quite sure, but it may have to do with the fact that adjusted contract prices are not always divisable by the tick size of the instrument. May be that offends NinjaTrader.

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

What is the name of your .txt file? It MUST be the exact name of the instrument, so 'QG 06-09' should be the name.

-Does the data import successfully?

It works. It is the problem of the TXT name. I just put 'QG'. Thank you very much!
