Brent Historical Data

[sb123]

Hi,

I can't access ICE Brent historical data after 29/01/2016 using my AMP/CQG connection. I've tried to install the latest version and reset instrument database but that didn't help.

The expiry date rule has changed for Brent recently. Is this causing some problem?
Should I change instrument definition manually?

Thank you

Hello,
This will be fixed in the next version of NinjaTrader. There seems to be some errors with the historical data and the rollovers that are associated with this instrument are going to be addressed on the next update. In the meantime, you would have to adjust the rollover dates for the BRN instrument to troubleshoot this. Please see the following steps to troubleshoot:

* Navigate to the Control Center -> Tools -> Instrument Manager...
* Search BRN
* Double click on BRN below search field to open the instrument editor window
* Navigate to the Misc tab
* Scroll to the bottom of this window and select the row Contract months and click on... (ellipsis)
* Select the 04-16 contract and then change the Rollover data to 1/29/2016
* Select the 05-16 contract and then change the Rollover data to 2/29/2016
* Select the 06-16 contract and then change the Rollover data to 3/31/2016
* Click OK

Next, take out the BRN contract and add the BRN 04-16 contract back to the default instrument list. You may not see update historical data, but you should see the last price.

Thanks a lot. The workaround has worked.
