TradeStation data for cash FX chart in Ninja ?

[jtrade]

Can I use the NinjaTrader strategy eld to take live data from a TradeStation FX chart, say, GBPAUD, and chart in Ninja ?

I see the example given refers to futures (& therefore futures symbol mapping) only.

Hello jtrade,

Thank you for your note.

You will be able to use TradeStation for all available markets with NinjaTrader, this includes, Forex, Futures, Index, and Equities.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Thanks, Cal.

2 questions, please : how do I map a cash FX symbol from TS for use in NT (using GBPAUD as an example) & can I do this whilst retaining my live futures connection to Ninja Brokerage or, as I neither have nor wish to have a multi-broker license, must I disconnect from Ninja Brokerage and only connect to the TradeStation strategy for the periods during which I require FX charting ?

jtrade,

You would not be able to connect to TradeStation and NinjaTrader Continuum connection at the same time, as the External data feed for TradeStation only allows one connection.

Additionally, you would need to add the symbol mapping for the Forex instrument in NinjaTrader for the Currency pair. This will be the same as using GBPAUD for TradeStation as the symbol map for NinjaTrader.

Thanks - will give it a try.
