Hello rafamunhoz,

Thanks for your note.

We do not have an estimated time for when this feature request will be implemented into the platform.

Deciding on features for future releases is not a simple black and white decision. There are many factors involved including but not limited to:

• Demand which is measured by objective user requests and subjective discretion on the part of our Product Management team.
• Feasibility
• Developer bandwidth
• Current projects in the queue
• Economics

You'll find a note regarding your feature request in the release notes when a feature is implemented.

Let me know if I may assist further.

can take all those other bullet points off and get to the actual issue....the simple economics is what it is about (direct competition with ninja brokerage)... having Tradestation data would make it the cheapest way to get live data.... the next cheapest is just to bite the bullet and open a ninjatrader brokerage account.

which basically you are going to find is your cheapest solution for live data....

just dont sign up for depth of market etc and it will cost you about 15$ a month. i recommend this approach as they will probably never implement this direct competition solution.
i waited for years and years staying on iqfeed hoping they would implement this with trade station....

understandable on their part but still a pain for us...but ayahh still thankful for what i can get :-) ... i did try several vendors as well to build me a connection through the ninja API but could not find any takers.... that would be the next one time cost solution is find a builder to tinker with their API and build you a connection to TS.... if you find one let me know :-)

another cheaper solution is open and account at TD ameritrade.... all your live stock data is free in nt8 that way...but TDs APi blocks the futures to nt8 as again probably a direct competition thing.... if you have free futures data then you dont need a ninja brokerage.... so again economics :-)

Is TS data no longer available even in NT7? The link on the first page goes to a page that doesn't list TS. I opened up the 64 bit NT7 and selected "external data feed." It made some noise and looks like it's connected to something but I don't know where to look to figure it out.

And add my vote to put this (and fix it?) into NT8.
