City Index

[wolves77]

hi, i have a spreadbetting account in the uk with 'City Index' , can i trade the 'DAX' with NT8.

I have linked the account to 'Forex.com' and the connection to 'My Forex.com' is established, but i am not getting any data.

Also, what is the tag for the DAX, as futures are not available, when i click on 'indexes' i can not see the symbol for the dax,

thanks

First, I'd like to clarify that spread betting is not supported with NinjaTrader and City Index. Also, the CFD instrument for the DAX CFD is 'GER30'. The DAX CFD instrument for use with CityIndex is 'GERMANY30' in NinjaTrader:

Hi,

thanks for reply, so i'm guessing that i can only trade CFD's with ninja trader through city index, but there is no option for 'CFD's when i click to open new chart.

any chance you could give me an overview on how i would go about trading the 'dax' on NT8 through my 'city index' account.

i'm new to ninja trader and this is all a little confusing to me,

thanks.
