How to get Bid/ask historical data

[appleseed]

Since most brokers don't provide historical bid/ask and tick historical data such as IB and TDAmeritrade I am using. If I connect to one of these broker accounts and get live charts, does NT automatically record bid/ask data?

Thanks.

Hello appleseed,

Thank you for your post.

NinjaTrader will save all real-time data including last price and bid/ask ask as long as this is setup.

To check for this, please go to Tools--> Options--> Data tab--> ensure "Save Chart Data as Historical" is checked.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.

Anyone know where to get 15 years back minute data of eg. EURUSD?

Got it. Can I convert them to a text file? I'm essentially trying to pull data into excel. Perhaps there's a way to access the raw data in NT?

Historical data manager - select the file - then click export !!!
Might do it !
