Hello andy4,

Thank you for your post.

Please follow the instructions below to add an instrument in the NinjaTrader 7 Instrument Manager.

• Press the "New" button
• Enter instrument specific information and select the appropriate exchange.
• Fill in any relevant information under the "Misc" tab, including the symbol mapping for Kinetick

For example, the SPY is added with:
Master Instrument: (user defined name) SPY
Instrument Type: Stock
