How can I add the Nikkei chart

[Newtrader101]

Hello, I dont see that the Nikkei is available as an option when creating a new chart?
How can I add this instrument?

Hello Newtrader101,

Thanks for posting to the forums.

You can use this instrument provided you are connected to a data provider that supports the Osaka Securities Exchange (OSE), and your specific account connection is enabled for the data. I have provided a link below to the NinjaTrader 7 Help Guide that goes over understanding the data provided by your connectivity provider.

Nikkei 225 is pre-configured in the instrument manager under N225.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Hello- I found N225 when searching in the instrument list, but the contract has no data. The name of the contract is, "N225-18", however I did find NKD 12-19 when searching that does have data.
Is NKD 12-19 the Nikkei?

Hello,

Thanks for your reply.

The NKD is the Nikkei/ USD future contract, N225 is the Nikkei index, which each require futures (Globex exchange) or index data respectively.

Please let me know if I may be of any further assistance.
