Hello U0000999,

Thank you for your note.

If an instrument is not native to the platform, it would not be natively supported. Many custom instruments can be added successfully, but note that some unsupported instruments may ultimately not function in the platform.

I recommend reaching out to your data provider and requesting symbol mapping information. I have provided an example of the information required from your data provider below.


Please follow the instructions below to add an instrument within the NinjaTrader 8 platform:

• From the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools > Instruments
• Click the "add"
• Enter instrument specific information and select the appropriate exchange
• Fill in the relevant symbol mapping for Kinetick
• Press the "OK" button

For example, the EMINI S&P 500 PREMIUM is added with:
Master Instrument: (user defined name)
Instrument Type: Index
Exchanges: Default
Tick Size: 0.01
Symbol Map: [data provider] [symbol mapping for data provider]

Please let us know if we may be of any further assistance.
