Hi all,
There is now a simple tool available for bulk-exporting minute bars from NT7, to work around the limitation in the app that requires exporting one symbol at a time.
The project is available on GitHub here, and the first release can be downloaded directly from here (unzip to any suitable directory and run the exe from the command line).
Functionality and usage is straightforward; supported options can be displayed by running NinjaTraderHistoryExporter -? at the command line.
To export data in the same file format as NT7 does, specify the -noheader option. Note however that the tool doesn't currently do any time-zone adjustment (so exported times will match what you see in NT7), whereas NT7 natively exports in UTC.
This was created for a specific use-case and so is currently rather limited, but as there have been a few requests for bulk export functionality, I hoped others might find it useful.
Comments/feedback/code contributions welcome.
Matt.
