Equities?

[NinjaTrader_VinceB]

Nelson,

Please try the following and keep in mind that you can only sim trade with TS data. They won't allow any order placement outside of their platform.

- Open up TS
- In TS go to File--> Import/Export Easy Language
- In the window that opens up Select 'Import EasyLanguage File (ELD, ELS, or ELA)and click Next
- This will open up an Import Wizard, click on Browse and select--> My computer--> C disk--> Program Files--> NinjaTrader5--> Bin--> AutoTrade--> NinjaTraderELD. Then click Next and OK until it is accepted.

- Then open up NinjaTrader and connect to External datafeed
- Then go back to TS and select the stock symbol you use and select a one minute chart
- When the chart is up and running, right click in the chart and select 'Insert Strategy'
- This will open up an Insert Strategies window, highlight NT ExternalFeed and click OK and Close.
- Then go back to NinjaTrader and open up a DOM and enter your stock in the instrument section and hit the Enter key on your keyboard. Data should now come in.

Let me know if this works for you

That seems extreme

I just want to look at an equity on the beautiful Ninja charts. I don't want to trade the equity from within Ninja. All my equity trades are done thru TS.

Is it possible just to look at the chart of an equity in Ninja?

Vince would this be easier by phone? I went thru the TS steps per your instructions, but nothing.

Also, I wanted to be able to view the equity in real time, not sim mode, while I have other ninja charts open for the futureds contracts.

Is this possible? Or can I only look at equity charts in sim?

Thanks

This is not possible, since you can not connect to ZenFire and "External Feed" the same time.

Same is true for the sim feed: you can not connect to ZenFire and "Sim Feed" the same time.

Ok

That clarifies it. I apologize for not asking the question properly the first time, and causing you and the others to waste so much time in getting my answer.

Thank you all for your efforts to help.
